5 PREFACE Perhaps no other subject in medicine has prompted such discussion, often with some animosity and certainly always with animation, as has the subject of screening for prostate cancer. Prior to the development of prostate specific antigen, screening was only a curiosity-an anecdote periodically due to the haphazard application of digital rectal examination. With PSA, however, screening was not only possible, but many men were found with the disease. The rate of increase in prostate cancer diagnoses in the late 1980s and early 1990s was unsurpassed by any other tumor in the history of modem public health statistics. We may never know all the "right" answers regarding prostate cancer screening. We are currently awaiting the completion of very large clinical trials in Europe and the United States, designed to answer the question. However, for the man at risk for the disease and for his physician, be it urologist, internist, or family physician, the issue is: What to do now? Prostate Cancer Screening is designed to help answer many of these questions. A balanced set of discussions is included that will provide an excellent, in-depth understanding for the physician and for the patient who strive to understand as much as possible about the disease and screening. This book is also designed for health care organizations that are struggling with the application of varying recommendations from medical specialty organizations. There is no right answer, only choices. The premise of Prostate Cancer Screening is that, armed with information and augmented by personal priorities and expectations, both patients and physicians can make informed choices. If that is achieved, we have attained our goal. Ian Thompson, MD Martin I. Resnick, MD Eric A. Klein, MD v
