Importance of Early Detection Screening with Dr. Keith Crawford

PHEN Director of Clinical Trials and Patient Education Dr. Keith Crawford explains why early detection screening is essential for Black men. Prostate cancer is the leading type of cancer for Black men. About 1 out of 5 African American men will be diagnosed with the disease. Black men are diagnosed at a rate 77% higher than White men.

The American Cancer Society estimates a 30% rise in new prostate cancer cases. However, earlier PSA testing has saved many lives. Early-stage disease is curable. Visit PHENPSA.com to learn more about early detection screening and what age to begin testing for prostate cancer.
