Abstract

A recent report from Yale University highlights sociodemographic disparities in prostate cancer imaging, emphasizing the importance of equal access to new imaging techniques for effective treatment and outcomes. The research identifies disparities in healthcare access, with Black patients being less likely to receive advanced imaging procedures. Regional variations in diagnostic imaging also contribute to differences in outcomes, particularly between urban and rural settings. Recognizing and addressing these disparities is crucial for promoting equitable access to care for all patients affected by prostate cancer. [Extracted from the article]
