Background. Prostate specific antigen (PSA) is useful as a tumor marker for monitoring patients with prostate cancer after definitive therapy. Limitations have been noted when PSA was used for the early detection of prostate cancer. The use of prostate specific antigen density [PSAD = PSA (ng/ml)/pr
