Abstract

Prostate cancer has the highest incidence of all cancers in Australian men following bowel cancer. Hence prostate cancer screening would be an ideal preventative measure. However, there are both arguments for and against such screening. This report will discuss both arguments and come to a conclusion. The World Health Organisation (WHO) defines the purpose of screening as to identify the presence of a specific cancer in an individual that does not demonstrate any symptoms. Australia currently employs the WHO’s screening program criteria to determine whether a particular illness should be screened.
