1. Improved Specificity: The phi test is more specific than the traditional PSA test, leading to fewer false positives. 2. Risk Stratification: Provides a clearer picture of the risk of prostate cancer, helping to guide clinical decision-making. 3. Reduction in Unnecessary Biopsies: Helps to avoid the complications and discomfort associated with unnecessary biopsies. 4. Peace of Mind: Offers more accurate information, which can reduce anxiety for patients with elevated PSA levels.
