The Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) blood test is still the only screening tool for prostate cancer. It is recommended between the ages of 50 and 69 as part of a shared decision making process between a patient and his or her doctor using a decision aid, as the test carries a significant risk of overdiagnosis. If a patient wishes to be screened, either because he is at higher risk, or because he places greater importance on a modest reduction in cancer-related mortality, the frequency of screening depends on his age, family history, and whether he is part of a high-risk group. The use of multiparametric MRI after a positive PSA result can reduce the number of biopsies and, consequently, the risk of overdiagnosis.
