What Does This Blood Report Indicate?

We have my husband s recent blood test results but don t find anything with PSA next to it to determine what his level is. His doctor did not tell him what the number was when he went for his checkup so we re wondering if we can locate it on the results. Are other letters used for this test other than PSA?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Your main concern is regarding your serum PSA value and it indicate your prostate condition. If PSA means prostate specific antigen increased then it indicate some form of prostatic Pathology. You can attach report to check about your PSA level and for further workup regarding prostate examination transrectal ultrasonography or digital rectal examination can be beneficial.
