Prostate Cancer Diagnosis, Screening & PSA Testing | OSCE Talk 🎙️

This episode Peter & Matthew look at Prostate Cancer, specifically focusing on risk factors, diagnosis, and utility of the PSA blood test.

Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) is a hot topic in the media, however it is not guaranteed to be raised in prostate cancer, and many other conditions and factors can impact on the level of this in the blood.

We also look at the need for onward referral to Urology, MRI and biospy as a definitive diagnosis as well as Gleason Scoring.

Finally Peter explains what needs to be included in discussion with a patient requesting for PSA testing.
