π΅ Menβs Health & Prostate Cancer Awareness
Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men. In South Africa, 1 in 15 men will be affected. Often symptomless in early stages, early screening saves lives.
Know the Risk Factors:
π΄ Age 50+
π¨βπ¦ Family history
π Higher risk in African American & South African black men
π₯© Diet high in red meat, low in fruit/veg
Screening Matters:
βοΈ PSA blood test
βοΈ Digital Re**al Exam
ποΈ Start at 45, or 40 with family history
Radiologyβs Role:
An MRI helps guide prostate biopsies, and further imaging, like CT, X-rays, ultrasound & PET/CT scans, help determine treatment and monitor spread.
At DRS Inc., we offer the above imaging to support prostate cancer diagnosis and care.
