Integration of genetic counselling into a multidisciplinary urological oncology programme enhances access and detection of hereditary prostate cancer syndromes

Future studies will analyse barriers and factors promoting referrals so that individuals and their families benefit from evidence-based treatment and early detection and prevention options.
