Prostate Cancer Diagnosis

We understand that a diagnosis of prostate cancer can bring with it a lot of anxiety and uncertainty. Our experts strive to give you the most accurate diagnosis possible using the latest technology. We want you to feel confident about your next step, whether it’s active surveillance for your disease or starting treatment.

We offer the most-advanced detection tests to pinpoint evidence of the disease and determine whether it has spread outside the prostate. We can also help you better understand your risk for developing prostate cancer.

Two tests commonly used to screen for prostate cancer are the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test and the digital rectal exam (DRE). But neither test, either alone or in combination, can give you a certain diagnosis of prostate cancer. For that, we’ll need to:

• do a comprehensive examination
• perform a prostate biopsy
• carry out an evaluation of risk factors, such as your family history of the disease
• perform diagnostic imaging studies
