According to Edward Partridge, M.D., president-elect of the American Cancer Society (ACS) National Board of Directors and director of the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) Comprehensive Cancer Center, men who undergo prostate-cancer screening should discuss with a doctor the uncertainties, risks and benefits of the test before it is performed.
It is important for men to talk openly and honestly with a health-care provider about the pros and cons of these tests to be in a better position to understand the results.
Until new screening tools are available, it is crucial for care providers and cancer-prevention program directors give men the opportunity to decide whether they wish to pursue early detection for this disease.
