Not quite sure what you mean by .01. The standard for undetectable is a PSA below .1. Where does .01 fit in at those institutions?

I just clicked on the link and it opened right up. Undetectable according to Mayo Clinic is defined as
0.01 ng / mL. Same with Northwestern Medicine in Chicgao

Here is the link again. It opened on my IPad and IPhone.

The National Institute of Health still defines undetectable as less than 0.1 ng/ mL which is a ten times higher threshold.
