CANSA is encouraging men to have a screening test to determine their risk for developing cancer. The prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test measures the amount of PSA in the blood, which indicates if there are any abnormalities present in the prostate gland. PathCare is once again offering PSA tests at a special tariff of R120 during November, to be paid in cash.
