Testing for Prostate Cancer

Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Test
Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) can be easily detected in your blood with a simple blood test. With proper interpretation by an experienced urologist, we can stratify your risk for prostate cancer and order further testing if necessary.

Digital Rectal Exam (DRE)
In this quick test, your physician will physically examine your prostate, allowing them to feel for any irregularities in its size, shape, or texture.

Prostate Cancer Is Treatable

The earlier prostate cancer is detected, the more treatment options will be available to you. Based on the prostate cancer grade and stage, your age, overall health status, and personal lifestyle, your urologist will discuss treatment options with you. Some prostate cancers do not even need to be initially treated and can be safely monitored for an extended period. Local prostate cancers have a 100% 5 year survival while distant (later stage) prostate cancers have less than half that.
