The ratio of free prostate-specific antigen (f-PSA) to total PSA (t-PSA) in serum, calculated as percent free PSA (f-PSA%), is lower in patients with prostate carcinoma (PCa) than in patients with benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). This parameter facilitates discrimination between the 2 groups of pa
