[Hopespringpcsg] FW: PSA Guidelines

[Glen Tolhurst]

Hi all:

See the attachment & link for the new PSA Guidelines just issued by Prostate
Cancer Canada.

Read it carefully to understand the potential impact on men in the coming
years.

It is likely a topic to be discussed at upcoming Prostate Cancer Support
Group meetings.

Take care,

Glen

Hello Everyone,

 

Thanks again for taking the time to participate in our webinar last week.
Much appreciated.  

 

As promised our PSA position endorsing the Canadian Urological Association
(CUA) recommendations are now on Prostate Cancer Canada’s website.  The link
to the PSA test page located on our website is in the link below.  As well,
I have attached the PSA test infographic which is on the webpage for your
immediate use.  You can also download it on the link below.

Please note that Prostate Cancer Canada continues to support the PSA test as
a key step in early diagnosis. It is important for men to discuss the PSA
test and personal risk factors with their doctor to make an informed
decision about whether the PSA test is right for them. 

 

In the coming weeks and months our educational materials will be revised to
reflect our position and you will be able to order those materials on-line.
I understand that a postcard will be ready for use shortly and I will send
an email when they are in stock.

 

Please do get in touch with me if you have questions.

 

Many thanks,

Anne
