Abstract

Prostate cancer is the second most diagnosed cancer and the fifth leading cause of cancer death among men worldwide. In the 1980s, the development and implementation of Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) testing for diagnosing prostate cancer led to a surge in the number of prostate cancer diagnoses. We explore the trends in recommendations and new innovations in adjunctive testing for prostate cancer screening. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
