Prostate-Cancer Screening
Screening is different to diagnose as it is performed on people that do not have any symptoms; it doesn’t provide a diagnosis but rather identifies individuals at increased risk for follow up diagnostic testing. When a doctor diagnoses a person with a sickness such as cancer, it could cause an extravagant increase of mixed emotions. Some of these diagnoses are not as severe as for patients that have less time to treat their stage of cancer. Medicines and treatments that are prescribed for patients could lead to tiredness more than usual because of the amount of physical participation having to be used. Also, in many cases a physician would say to schedule a surgery, but the patient wouldn’t be in the need of one, either because the cancer isn’t in existence yet, but will be in the future or it could try to prevent the cancer from being a diagnose to them. The possibilities of a patient results on their screenings could be cured or not come into existence through time. Although many people believe in the importance of early cancer …show more content…
This test can detect prostate cancer in its earliest, most operable stage. A 2016, article in (A Better Prostate-Cancer Test?) from Wall Street Journal Online provides a durable statement discussing the great effects of prostate-cancer tests, “Several new prostate-cancer tests aim to reduce needless biopsies and unnecessary treatments by sorting out harmless from aggressive tumors” (qtd. Beck 1). Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) can elevate your level of conditions other than cancer such as, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostatitis. With the results from the screening, it could help treat the cancer easier and more likely to be cured if it’s diagnosed in the early stages of the
