Usefulness of free PSA ratio to enhance detection of clinically significant prostate cancer in patients with PI-RADS<3 and PSA≤10
In patients with PI-RADS <3 and PSA ≤10 ng/ml, %fPSA values < 17.6% may facilitate early prostate cancer diagnosis in those who might not undergo biopsy based on MRI results alone. Additionally, unnecessary biopsies could be avoided in patients with elevated PSA levels when %fPSA exceeds 17.6%.
