Prostate‐specific antigen testing and prostate cancer‐related outcomes: a Danish nationwide study

In Denmark PSA testing rates are high and prevalent in older ages, despite restrictive national guidelines and active training against PSA testing for general practitioners. The findings support the discussion of whether the availability of the PSA test should be reconsidered to minimise the harms associated with unnecessary testing.

Abstract

In Denmark PSA testing rates are high and prevalent in older ages, despite restrictive national guidelines and active training against PSA testing for general practitioners. The findings support the discussion of whether the availability of the PSA test should be reconsidered to minimise the harms associated with unnecessary testing.
