CASE AT A GLANCE
PSA Screening / Delay Diagnosis Prostate Cancer

Illustrated Verdict, Inc. © All rights reserved.

Case Overview:

An older gentleman had been receiving PSA screenings over a period of 6 years and during that time he did present with a total PSA as being slightly high, but his free PSA was normal. We used visuals to demonstrate how PSA testing works and what they are looking for when they flag it as high. Typically a total PSA that is high, but the free PSA is within normal range, can help them determine if it is a benign enlargement vs. a tumor of the prostate. The illustrations were used in Jury Study and the case dismissed.
