Astellas and The Prostate Cancer Foundation teamed up in September 2022 (Prostate Cancer Awareness Month) to provide free Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) testing. Twelve private hospitals took part in this initiative and a total of 1 256 PSA tests were carried out. The PSA test is a blood test to assist in the detection of prostate abnormalities. The aim of this initiative was to raise awareness about the risks of prostate cancer and to encourage men to consider age and risk appropriate screening to ensure the early detection of prostate cancer. This year the Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) testing is back and will be held from 27-28 September 2024 and Dr Lance Coetzee, surgeon and urologist at the Urology Hospital Pretoria joins to talk about this significant awareness.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
