Typical Plan When Post RP PSA goes from < 0.02 to >= 0.02?

Was your last test at the same lab? I don't get the Ultra sensitive test done but the hospital reports it as < 0.1 where my Urologist paperwork says 0.1. The missing less than sign may be a typo or simply not recorded. One time my PSA blood test was sent to a different lab with a reference range of 0.03 to 4.0. My result was reported as 0.03. No less than sign. What was the reference range of the test you just took? Try not to worry.

That is confusing. < means less than. So 0.09 or any thing is less than 0.1. In other words, it is not detectable at 0.1. How is that different from < 0.1? Why do you need the < sign to indicate undetectable?`
Dont mind me. I am just another layman trying to make some sense of the whole thing.
