Active Surveillance for Low Risk Prostate Cancer

July 21, 2021 updated by: Dmitry Enikeev, MD, PhD, I.M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University

Active Surveillance Methodology for Low Risk Prostate Cancer

An active surveillance protocol for patients diagnosed low-risk prostate cancer will be held. We plan to use PSA (prostate-specific antigen) testing, DRE (digital rectal examination), TRUS (transrectal ultrasound), MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) and follow-up biopsies to monitor patients and detect cancer progression in time.
