Hi

Thanks for the information. My urologist didnt mention it when I had an office visit but I was curious about the scores. I have a large prostate 105 grams and that may skew the readings.

With no more info than that, you should strongly consider ultrasound with or without biopsy.

Based on that limited info, your chance of cancer is about 25% (which means your chance of NOT having it is 75%); high enough for the next step IMO.
