PCaSO’s PSA event at Hove on 1st April saw 273 men attend for the blood test. After processing of the blood samples in hospital laboratory conditions, 10% of the men were found to have elevated PSA readings, of which 18 were ‘high’. This does not of course confirm that the cancer is present, but does indicate that the prostate gland needs investigation as to the cause of the high reading.
