Point-of-care clinical tests utilise blood, body fluids or secretions in biochemical reactions to diagnose or monitor a variety of medical conditions.
Even with its limitations, the PSA test remains an important tool in the diagnosis and treatment of men with prostate cancer, along with other diagnostic tools, plus the prostate examination. Dr. Peter Scardino states this in the WSJ article.
