Show 1039: How to Reduce Your Risk from Breast or Prostate Cancer

$ 0.00

As we grow older, the risk of two different cancers looms ever larger: breast cancer for women and prostate cancer for men.

Unscrambling the Controversies:

There have been controversies over the best methods for detecting and treating each cancer. When should women start getting annual mammograms, for example? How useful are PSA screenings for identifying prostate cancer in men?

Our guests are leading experts on the treatment of these cancers, and they do not shy away from controversy. Get an update on the latest thinking on how you can cut your own risk, whether you are male or female.

The Research Articles:

The research cited on DCIS (ductal carcinoma in situ) for breast cancer was published in JAMA Oncology in October 2015. The research on prostate cancer that we discussed was published in the New England Journal of Medicine on October 29, 2015.
