What is the PSA?
This is a blood test, which tests for a prostate-specific antigen. This is a glycoprotein secreted by the prostate and is specific to the prostate. It is not specific to prostate cancer since it can be increased in prostate infections, following prostate manipulation and huge enlargement of the benign prostate. If PSA is raised or there is any abnormality on finger examination, we advise a prostatic biopsy.
What happens once the diagnosis of prostate cancer is made?
The patient will be asked to get a few more tests like MRI of pelvis, Bone scans or PMSA PET scans depending on the initial findings to state the disease.
What is a prostatic biopsy?
It is a small procedure, where we take a few bits of prostatic tissue directly with finger guidance or with trans-rectal ultrasound. The bits are sent for histological examination.
