In reversal, American Cancer Society urges prostate cancer tests for all men
摘要

美国癌症协会更新前列腺癌筛查指南,建议所有男性定期接受PSA检测。平均风险男性应从50岁至69岁每两年检测一次;因种族和家族史被视为高风险的男性应提前至45岁开始,多数建议每年检测。其中,黑人男性从45岁起每年检测;非黑人男性若近亲65岁前确诊前列腺癌或有不止一位亲属患病,也应从45岁起每年检测;若仅一位近亲在65岁及以上确诊,则从45岁起每两年检测一次。

In a significant update to its guidelines for prostate cancer screening, the American Cancer Society is now recommending that all men get routinely screened for prostate cancer with a PSA test.

Men at average risk should get a PSA test every two years from age 50 to 69, according to the new guidelines released Thursday.

Men considered at high risk due to race and family history should start testing earlier, at 45, and most are recommended to get tested every year. Specifically, yearly testing starting at age 45 is recommended for all Black men, who have higher rates of prostate cancer. Non-Black men should also get yearly testing starting at 45 if a close relative was diagnosed with prostate cancer before age 65, or if more than one of their relatives has had prostate cancer. On the other hand, if only one close relative was diagnosed with prostate cancer and it was diagnosed at age 65 or older, non-Black men in this case should start PSA screening at 45, but are recommended to get testing only every two years.
