Dr Sarah Cant, Head of Policy and Campaigns at The Prostate
Cancer Charity, spoke to the Daily Telegraph, BBC News Online and the Mature
Times, about the results of a survey published by the British
Medical Journal, which suggests that a single blood
test for every man aged 60 could save tens of thousands of lives by
pinpointing those most at risk from prostate cancer. Dr Cant said
the study presented an interesting proposition which takes the
ongoing PSA and screening debate in a new direction,
but that long-term research in a greater number and range of
men would be needed to determine whether the approach would
work.
