ABSTRACT

The data accumulated during screening of these 300 men suggest that the digital rectal examination is the most efficient test for the diagnosis of prostate cancer. This test is universally available, because physicians believe that it should routinely be performed as part of the physical examination of every man, particularly for men over the age of 40. The digital rectal examination provides useful clinical information about the rectum, anal sphincter, and the quality of stool. Its diagnostic accuracy is unexcelled by more recent, complex, and expensive tests. Finally, in this age of escalating medical costs and physician accountability for these costs, you can't beat the price of the digital rectal examination.
