Prostate Cancer
Screening Prostate cancer screening is a procedure used to detect the presence of cancerous cells in the prostate gland. The screening test measures the level of a protein known as prostate-specific antigen (PSA). High levels of PSA in the blood may indicate the presence of prostate cancer. Prostate cancer screening is important because it facilitates early detection, which can lead to successful treatment and improved outcomes. Early detection can help prevent the spread of the cancer to other parts of the body and reduce the risk of death due to prostate cancer. Regular screening is recommended for men over the age of 50.
