Patient's question:
Two annual health check-ups showed elevated PSA levels ranging between 5.3-6.7, with a ratio of 0.10-0.11. The specialist recommended an MRI examination. Could you please help me review the report, especially regarding the interpretation of the prostate multi-quantitative spectroscopy, what exactly does it mean?Doctor's answer:
I'll translate the content into English, keeping the line breaks as they are. Here's the translation:"In your case, let me make a guess. First, there is no definite tumor-like lesion found in the entire prostate, especially in the peripheral zone. Second, the PSA is not very high. Also, the area you mentioned being around the urethra is the most common region for benign prostatic hyperplasia, which should be fibrotic nodules. Based on the current thorough examination results, you should focus on follow-up examinations. There are many treatment methods for the prostate, but since the symptoms of patients differ, the treatment methods also vary. Therefore, patients need to have timely examinations and diagnoses to receive symptomatic treatment."
