Abstract:
Provided in an embodiment is a high resolution method of detecting prostate cancer comprising utilizing a solid phase immunoassay to determine if a patient fluid shows a MIC-1 value in Zone M. In an embodiment, the method comprises conducting a sandwich assay in an assay device that, if the determined value is in Zone M, automatically generates a report stating that a high risk of prostate cancer exists.Also provided in an embodiment a high resolution method of detecting prostate cancer comprising utilizing a solid phase immunoassay to determine if a patient serum shows a MIC-1 value and a PSA value in Zone A (defined below) or, if utilized, Zone B. In an embodiment, the method comprises conducting a sandwich assay in an assay device that, if the determined value is in Zone A and/or Zone B, automatically generates a report stating that a high risk of prostate cancer exists.
