The only way to know for sure whether you have prostate cancer is for us to perform a biopsy, in which we take a sample of the unusual tissue from your prostate.
The tissue sample will be examined under a microscope. If cancer cells are found, they will be given a rank from 2-10 using a method called the Gleason score. A high ranking on the Gleason score suggests that the cancer is the most aggressive or abnormal type, and it is likely to quickly spread.
When the biopsy shows that prostate cancer is present, more tests may be done to determine if the cancer cells have spread to other parts of the body. It is important to know where the cancer cells have moved to create a personalized treatment plan.
