Prostate cancer test

Published by

I just did my (Prostate Serum Antigen) PSA test and it was within normal range. Kindly let me know what further tests I should do to rule out Prostate cancer. I am a 60-year-old man.

An imaging test, such as ultrasound or MRI, or a ‘fusion’ of the two can go a long way in assessing your prostate. In addition, a biopsy of the prostate can also be carried out. It is usually done by a medical specialist (urologist) at the nearest specialist or teaching hospital to you.
