Prostate Cancer Screening

Read in Hindi
Prostate cancer is most often detected in the early stages by a combination of clinical exam (rectal exam) and Serum PSA (Prostate specific antigen), a tumor marker that is useful in this disease. Further confirmation involves a biopsy of the prostate from the rectal route (most often) under local anesthesia and ultrasound guidance. This is a fairly painless procedure done usually by a Urologist and involves taking pieces from the prostate which will be examined under the microscope.
