More than 200,000 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer this year and 27,000 will die. Yet there is no clear evidence that being screened for prostate cancer is beneficial, says Tim Church, a University of Minnesota expert on cancer screenings. <clip: “Screening for prostate cancer has been…or to reduce the amount of illness.”> Church says that the decision to be screened for prostate cancer is a personal one that a man should make after consulting his doctor. <clip: “Most prostate cancer is not an aggressive…if we are to prevent illness and death.”> Church is currently conducting a research trial involving 75,000 men.
