According to published studies, PSA levels between 4 and 10 result in a 25% chance of prostate cancer and a PSA result greater than 10 increases the risk of cancer to 67%. Rising levels of PSA over time are highly indicative of prostate cancer and consequently periodic testing is recommended. Following is a sample of the results of the PSA blood test.
