Recent media coverage has raised concerns about the reliability of rapid at-home Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) tests. Reports suggest issues such as inconsistent and inaccurate results causing unnecessary distress or false reassurance. At Randox Health, we recognise the importance of accurate and reliable testing, which is why we do not use rapid methods for PSA testing.
Our Commitment to Precision and Accuracy
Unlike rapid at-home PSA tests, Randox Health ensures that every PSA test is performed under strict laboratory conditions. Whether you visit one of our clinics or opt for our convenient home sample collection kit, a blood sample is collected and returned to our state-of-the-art laboratory for analysis. This approach allows us to provide more precise and dependable results, reducing the risk of misleading outcomes.
Advanced PSA Testing for Better Insights
In addition to traditional PSA testing, Randox Health offers an Advanced PSA test that goes beyond traditional PSA screening. This test incorporates additional biomarkers that enhance the accuracy of prostate cancer risk assessment. Research has shown that our unique biomarker combination significantly improves predictive potential compared to PSA testing alone, providing individuals with a more comprehensive understanding of their prostate health.
