It is vital that patients understand what is happening and why. In each step of the process of evaluation for possible prostate cancer there is advice and shared decision-making. Dr. Tony first assesses patient’s clinical history, examination, and pathology results. Some patients can be reassured or observed. Other may benefit from a mpMRI and/or biopsy of the prostate. Patients who are then found to have prostate cancer are then further checked for possible spread.
Much can be done for those who are unfortunate enough to have prostate cancer found. The nature of prostate cancer varies greatly, and treatment recommendations are individualised for the patient. For some, careful ongoing observation may be enough. Others may require active treatment of their cancer. This may mean referral on for surgery (radical prostatectomy) in a high-volume centre of excellence, or radiotherapy.
