Early detection for men's health. Why Cancer Screening Matters Cancer Statistics for Men: - 1 in 2 men will develop cancer in their lifetime - Prostate cancer: 1 in 8 men - Colorectal cancer: 1 in 23 men - Early detection dramatically improves survival rates What This Panel Checks: PSA Total (Prostate Cancer): Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) is the primary screening test for prostate cancer. Elevated PSA can indicate prostate cancer, enlarged prostate (BPH), or prostate inflammation. CEA (Colon Cancer): Carcinoembryonic Antigen is often elevated in colorectal cancer, as well as breast, lung, pancreas, and stomach cancers. Also used to monitor cancer treatment response. Hepatic Function Panel (Liver Cancer): Liver enzymes (ALT, AST, ALP, bilirubin) can indicate liver disease or liver cancer. Elevated enzymes may warrant further screening. Complete Blood Count (CBC): Screens for blood cancers (leukemia, lymphoma) and anemia that can indicate internal bleeding from cancer. Who Should Get This Test? This panel is appropriate for: - Men 45+ who want basic cancer screening - Men with family history of prostate or colon cancer - African American men (higher prostate cancer risk) - Anyone experiencing unexplained symptoms - Men who haven't had cancer screening in 2+ years - Anyone concerned about cancer risk The American Cancer Society recommends prostate cancer screening discussions starting at age 50 (or 45 for high-risk men).
