| name | Prostate specific Ag [Mass/volume] in Serum or Plasma by Immunoassay | ||||||||
| description | This term was created for, but is not limited in use to, bioMerieux's VIDAS TPSA assay, which is intended for the quantitative measurement of prostate specific antigen (PSA) in human serum or plasma. | ||||||||
| status | ACTIVE | ||||||||
Fully-Specified Name | |||||||||
| component | Prostate specific Ag | ||||||||
| property | MCnc = Mass Concentration | ||||||||
| time | Pt = Point in time: To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements. | ||||||||
| system | Ser/Plas Ser = Serum Plas = Plasma | ||||||||
| scale | Qn = Quantitative: The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range.
