Prostate Cancer Screening | Early Detection at I D Cancer Centre

Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men, especially after the age of 50. The good news is that when detected early, it is highly treatable.
Prostate cancer screening helps find changes in the prostate before symptoms appear, ensuring faster diagnosis, timely treatment, and better quality of life.

At I D Cancer Centre, prostate screening is done under the supervision of experienced oncologists using safe, accurate, and internationally recommended tests.


⭐ What Is Prostate Cancer Screening?

Prostate cancer screening includes simple tests that check the health of the prostate gland.
Screening helps detect:

  • Early-stage prostate cancer

  • Enlarged prostate (BPH)

  • Prostate inflammation (prostatitis)

Even if you feel healthy, regular screening is important as prostate cancer often develops silently.


⭐ Who Should Get Prostate Cancer Screening?

Screening is recommended for:

✔ Men aged 50 years and above

✔ Men aged 45+ with risk factors:

  • Family history of prostate cancer

  • African/Indian ethnicity

  • Lifestyle factors (obesity, smoking, low physical activity)

✔ Men experiencing symptoms:

  • Frequent urination

  • Weak or interrupted urine flow

  • Blood in urine or semen

  • Pelvic discomfort

Early screening is the best way to prevent complications.


⭐ Tests Used in Prostate Cancer Screening

1. PSA Blood Test (Prostate-Specific Antigen)

A simple blood test that measures PSA levels.
High PSA levels may indicate prostate cancer, but also benign conditions.

2. Digital Rectal Examination (DRE)

A quick clinical examination to check the size, shape, and texture of the prostate.

3. MRI Prostate (if needed)

Used when PSA levels are abnormal or to confirm suspicious findings.

4. Ultrasound or Biopsy

Performed only when screening suggests a possibility of cancer.
