Epidemiologically, screening is justified by the importance of the disease and the lack of prospects for primary prevention, but evidence from natural history is unhelpful since men are more likely to die with, rather than from, prostate cancer. The available screening tests do not always detect ...
So, should all men avoid prostate cancer screening tests? No, Brawley says. "I am for informed decision-making. I will admit it may save lives, but I would like to tailor screening to men who are at higher risk and men who are very concerned about prostate cancer." The American Cancer...
It’s imperative to note that this study focused on men with low-risk prostate cancer, so it’s not necessarily applicable to all patients. However, it does suggest that the use of DRE in prostate cancer surveillance may not be necessary in all cases. Prostate cancer screening and surveillanc...
As with all screening tests, some men without prostate cancer will receive positive PSA test results (ie, “false-positive” results). The false-positive rate for the PSA test depends on the PSA threshold used. Among 5 ERSPC sites that reported the false-positive rate, approximately 1 in 6...

Clinically significant cancer was defined as any Gleason score of 3+4 or higher. Results A total of 2034 men were invited to participate; of 411 who attended screening, 408 consented to receive all screening tests. The proportion with positive MRI results (score, 3-5) was higher than the ...
In this paper, we demonstrated that this screening program is successful to detect early prostate cancer with high detection rate (0.8%), improves the survival rates comparing to those of patients detected by outpatient clinics and the tests applied in this program prove relatively high specificity ...
