A 30-year-old man, for some unknown reason, has fallen ill and is feeling unwell. What are the early screening methods for prostate cancer?
Answers
Early diagnosis of prostate cancer is of great significance. Routine screening for prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels greater than 10ng/ml is recommended, followed by a detailed examination using multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging. This detailed examination is equivalent to locking in prostate cancer at different locations within the prostate, and then combining it with targeted fusion prostate magnetic resonance biopsy. This helps in the early diagnosis of prostate cancer.
