reliably raises serum PSA, but the time for PSA to fall back to a patient’s baseline is variable in the literature — typically weeks rather than days; most authoritative reviews and guidelines advise ...
after relies on a combination of blood testing, advanced imaging, and targeted tissue sampling: prompt investigation, characterizes suspicious post‑surgical tissue, and provides histologic confirmatio...
Clinicians distinguish from versus by integrating clinical context (symptoms and signs of infection), PSA magnitude and dynamics (absolute level and velocity), adjunctive laboratory metrics (free-to-t...
Nomograms are multivariable statistical tools that combine pathological and biochemical features—most commonly Gleason score, PSA level or PSA doubling time (PSADT), and surgical margin status—to gene...
