Elecsys Total PSA
The Elecsys Total PSA test utilizes an electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA) technology. It is performed on Roche Elecsys immunoassay analyzers, which are automated systems used in clinical laboratories.
The measurement of total PSA is commonly used in the screening, diagnosis, and monitoring of prostate cancer. However, it’s important to note that elevated PSA levels can also occur in non-cancerous conditions, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) or prostatitis.
