Worked calculation
The values below come from this tool's own example placeholders and are computed server-side with the formula shown on this page, so the arithmetic can be checked quickly. It demonstrates how to substitute values only — it is not clinical advice and not a real case.
| PSA | 6.5 ng/mL |
|---|---|
| Length (sagittal craniocaudal) | 4.5 cm |
| Width (axial transverse) | 4.8 cm |
| Height (anteroposterior) | 3.6 cm |
| PI-RADS (optional) | PI-RADS 3 |
→PSAD0.161ng/mL²
- Prostate volume:40.4 mL (4.5×4.8×3.6×0.52); >30 mL enlarged
- PSAD:0.161 ng/mL²
- Biopsy cue:PI-RADS 3 with PSAD 0.10–0.20: intermediate; decide biopsy vs surveillance with clinical factors and patient preference.
Common questions
What is Prostate Volume (Ellipsoid) & PSA Density (PSAD)?
Ellipsoid prostate volume from three diameters, PSA density from PSA, and a PI-RADS-stratified biopsy cue. Instant, browser-side.
How is Prostate Volume (Ellipsoid) & PSA Density (PSAD) calculated? What is the core formula?
Volume = L × W × H × 0.52 (mL); PSAD = PSA / volume.
When is Prostate Volume (Ellipsoid) & PSA Density (PSAD) used?
Reporting prostate volume on MRI or TRUS and deciding on biopsy.
What are the key clinical points for Prostate Volume (Ellipsoid) & PSA Density (PSAD)?
Volume = L×W×H×0.52. PSAD = PSA / volume. 0.15 is the traditional cut-off. Stratify together with PI-RADS.
What are the limits and cautions when using Prostate Volume (Ellipsoid) & PSA Density (PSAD)?
For licensed clinicians and clinical researchers. Interpret results with history, investigations and local protocols; not a diagnosis or prescription, and not a substitute for multidisciplinary decision-making or local guidelines.
Does Prostate Volume (Ellipsoid) & PSA Density (PSAD) upload patient data? Where is it calculated?
Calculation runs locally in the browser; inputs and results are not uploaded. For licensed clinicians only; interpret with history, investigations and local protocols — not a diagnosis or prescription.
How is Prostate Volume (Ellipsoid) & PSA Density (PSAD) calculated in practice? Can you show a worked example?
Inputs: PSA 6.5 ng/mL, Length (sagittal craniocaudal) 4.5 cm, Width (axial transverse) 4.8 cm, Height (anteroposterior) 3.6 cm, PI-RADS (optional) PI-RADS 3 → Result: PSAD 0.161 ng/mL²(Prostate volume: 40.4 mL (4.5×4.8×3.6×0.52); >30 mL enlarged, PSAD: 0.161 ng/mL², Biopsy cue: PI-RADS 3 with PSAD 0.10–0.20: intermediate; decide biopsy vs surveillance with clinical factors and patient preference.)
