I'm having the same experience as you with Mayo Phoenix. My 3 month PSA test after bilaternal NS RALP was a standard PSA test at .04 and there was no discussion about getting an ultra-sensitive PSA test nor increasing the frequency. I don't know but I suspect you're correct that with a favorable pathology report with clean margins it just isn't indicated to ask for ultra-sensitive PSA testing unless the PSA gets up to .1

A little confused by your results. You say you are at .04 without an ultra sensitive test. I don’t get an ultra sensitive test and the lowest number I can get is less than < .1. How are you able to get .04 without an ultrasensitive test?
