It depends on which Quest lab it is sent to and which PSA test chosen. Quest has different codes for Total PSA and Ultrasensitive PSA (for post-prostatectomy). If you choose the Ultrasensitive PSA, the sample is usually sent to Quest's Lab in San Juan Capistrano, CA and that lab uses the Beckman Coulter DxI method. The regular PSA can be sent to one of many labs with different equipment, potentially the Siemens assay indicated by Bobby Mac above.
