Is PSA Of 5.1 An Indication Of Cancer?

My husband was diagnosed years ago with bah. His urinary problems have gotten worse. He is a 66 year old male. His psa was 5.1. His prostate has some calcification. He has no pelvic pain, weight loss, blood in urine just the basic bah symptoms. A TURP is being scheduled. Is this a high indicator for cancer.
