Men at higher risk, including African American men and men who have a first-degree relative (father or brother) diagnosed with prostate cancer before age 65, should be screened at age 45. Men at a very high risk (multiple family members diagnosed with prostate cancer before age 65 years) should be tested at age 40. In addition to the screenings, participants and family members can enjoy a tailgate party buffet at the Center for Cancer Care.
