Aiding in distinguishing prostate cancer from benign prostate conditions in men with prostate-specific antigen (PSA) concentrations in the 4 to 10 ng/mL range and digital rectal examination (DRE) findings that are not suspicious for cancer
Calculation of prostate health index (phi) as a part of a reflex test when PSA concentrations are between 4 and 10 ng/mL
Highlights
Prostate health index (phi) may be used to determine the probability of prostate cancer on biopsy in men with total prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in the 4.0 to 10.0 ng/mL range.

Testing Algorithm Delineates situations when tests are added to the initial order. This includes reflex and additional tests.
If the initial PSA concentration is between 2.0 and 10.0 ng/mL, then free PSA and [-2]pro-PSA isoform results will be reported.
If the initial PSA concentration is between 4.0 and 10.0 ng/mL, then the percent free PSA result and prostate health index (phi) will be calculated and reported.
If the initial PSA concentration is between 2.0 and 4.0 ng/mL, then the percent free PSA result and prostate health index (phi) will not be calculated or reported.
