Program #1Dr. Paul Shapiro, a local urologist, talked aboutthe importance of prostate cancer screening. Herecommends having the PSA blood test and therectal exam beginning at age 40. Since screening(PSA) started the disease presenting itself hasdecreased from 25% down to 5%. Because of earlydiagnosis, people have longer life expectancies. Ifprostate cancer is detected early, it is curable.However, once it gets into the lymph nodes andbones, a person’s life expectancy is only 3-5 years.
