There is no national screening programme for prostate cancer.
Instead, there is a prostate cancer risk management programme. Its aim is to give full and accurate information about the risks and benefits of asking for a PSA blood test. You can find out more about it on the NHS Cancer Screening website.
For more information about prostate cancer, go to the prostate cancer section of this website.
Macmillan Cancer Support - online information about the PSA test. Contact the Macmillan Support Line on 0808 808 0000 for more information.
The National Electronic Library for Cancer website has information on the risk management programme, as well as a choice of patient information leaflets about the PSA test. You can download the leaflets from the website.
