Actually, The medical community generally considers < .1 as undetectable. Some labs can go as low as < ,001 And others < .006 But that is not considering undetectable that is just the value they come up with.

I do not speak for medical community nor should you. I am not a medical professional nor an expert on PC with medical training and medical degree.

I post my personal experiences with information given to me by my personal experiences and information given to me by my Mayo doctors. I will post what I am told directly from my doctors and did so here.

Mayo Jacksonville lab does not post any PSA numbers below >.10 as consider undetectable. I was told this by my Mayo PCP as my PSA not my opinion or fact checking.

At one point my PSA reached .10 and I asked how much lower it could go. Then I was told Mayo Lab does not post numbers below that as undetectable. What I posted is I do see other labs results given to posters that do post numbers below >.10

What is difference in >.10 and >.1 Nothing

I post from my personal experiences and not trying to speak and post for the medical community.
