    PSA testing for prostate cancer: Understanding the debate

    PSA testing for prostate cancer is controversial due to its potential for false positives and non-cancerous causes of elevated PSA levels. Experts recommend men aged 55-69 discuss screening with providers, especially those at higher risk, such as African American men or those with family history. The test can detect life-threatening cancers early but may lead to unnecessary biopsies or treatment for slow-growing, non-threatening cancers.
