Resumen

The American Cancer Society announced updated prostate-cancer screening guidelines in the United States, which is confirmed. The updated guidelines recommend biennial PSA testing for average-risk men aged 50-69, and this is confirmed. There is not enough evidence to verify the previous recommendation that men aged 50 and older undergo PSA testing every two years. The updated guidelines also recommend annual testing starting at age 45 for higher-risk groups, which is confirmed. Additionally, the guidelines introduce pathways to limit unnecessary biopsies, which is confirmed.
