What Does TPSA Stand For?
TPSA stands for Total Prostate Specific Antigen
TPSA, or Total Prostate Specific Antigen, is a blood test primarily used to screen for prostate cancer and monitor treatment efficacy in diagnosed cases. It measures the level of prostate-specific antigen, a protein produced by the prostate gland, with elevated levels potentially indicating prostate cancer, benign prostatic hyperplasia, or prostate inflammation. TPSA testing is an essential tool in urology for assessing prostate health and guiding clinical decisions.
