Does the amount of PSA measure how much cancer he has?

How much PSA is produced by prostate cancer?

Prostate cancer cells leak a lot more PSA into the blood stream. On average, one prostate cancer cell will produce 10 times more PSA than one normal prostate cell. Consequently, a man with prostate cancer will usually, but not always, have a PSA level above 4.0 ng/ml or 2.5 ng/ml for men age 60 or younger.
