US PROSTATE CANCER FOUNDATION: The recent publication of two studies in the The New England Journal of Medicine challenging the usefulness of PSA testing in men reinvigorated a long-standing debate and initiated a wave of media stories.
Unfortunately for patients, rather than providing clarity, this most recent round of public discussion may have done more to confuse than to help the very men it was intended to serve.
