PCC position on PSA testing | 11/2/2011

The United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) has recently recommended against the use of prostate specific antigen (PSA) to screen for prostate cancer in asymptomatic men. In light of this development, Prostate Cancer Canada (PCC) wishes to clarify its position on PSA testing. PCC continues to support and recommend PSA testing for the early detection of prostate cancer. PCC emphasizes that, applied appropriately, PSA is a useful test. A full discussion with the patient on the pros and cons of PSA testing should continue to be an integral part of patient management.
