Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: More than 1 million prostate biopsies are conducted yearly in the United States. The low specificity of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) results in diagnostic biopsies in men without prostate cancer (PCa). Additional information, such as genetic markers, could be used to avoid unnecessary biopsies. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with PCa can be used to...
