New Urine Test Reduces Unnecessary Biopsies in Prostate Cancer Detection
Author: Raushanah Najeeullah, ND
A new urine test, MyProstateScore 2.0 (MPS2), offers better accuracy for detecting high-grade prostate cancer compared to current methods. In a recent study involving over 1,500 men, MPS2 reduced unnecessary biopsies by up to 51% while still identifying significant cancers with high sensitivity. This test improves on the PSA test by specifically targeting 17 genes linked to high grade aggressive prostate cancer, making it a promising non-invasive tool for reducing the risks and discomfort associated with prostate cancer screening.
