About The Prostate Health Index:
The Prostate Health Index (phi) is a test that utilizes the combination of three blood tests to produce a "phi score." The test was designed for men who have a PSA between 4 and 10 ng/ml. Research has shown that phi provides more accurate information than PSA alone at determining which individuals may need a prostate biopsy and which individuals have an elevated PSA that is more likely due a benign condition, such as normal prostate growth, or an infection in the prostate.
Patient Resources:
Below are several resources designed to help patients and their family better understand how phi is used in a clinical setting, including a video as well as downloadable brochures.
