Cancer Screening & Early Detection in Urology Frankfurt
The most common cancers that occur in the urinary tract and genital organs are prostate cancer, bladder cancer, and kidney cancer. Early detection of these cancers is often crucial for successful treatment.
When prostate cancer is diagnosed, your urologist will perform a blood test to determine the level of prostate-specific antigen (PSA). An elevated level may indicate prostate cancer. Another common method used to detect different types of cancer is ultrasound. For example, a transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) is performed at Urology Frankfurt if your urologist suspects prostate cancer. This provides a detailed overview so that your urologist can identify abnormalities or growth patterns that could indicate cancer. A biopsy may also be performed to take tissue samples. An ultrasound can also provide information in bladder and kidney cancer to identify tumors, cysts or other abnormalities. Here, your practitioner examines the entire urinary tract. Especially if kidney cancer or prostate cancer is suspected, a preventive examination using sonography is useful, as these types of cancer often do not show any symptoms in the early stages.
In addition to determining the PSA value and ultrasound, Urology Frankfurt uses many other methods to determine or exclude different types of cancer and to make a precise diagnosis. These include palpation, cystoscopy, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Cancer diagnosis – and now? In good hands at the urology practice in Frankfurt
Cancer remains one of the greatest challenges of modern medicine and a frightening diagnosis for almost everyone. Especially when it affects the genital organs – as in the case of prostate cancer, bladder cancer and testicular cancer in men or vulvar and vaginal cancer in women – it is still not easy to address it openly. Cancer of the genital organs is still a sensitive and often taboo topic despite growing social openness and acceptance. In this respect, the diagnosis can be of enormous stress for those affected, not only physically, but also psychologically. Worries about one's own health are often accompanied by fears about sexuality and fertility, which can put a strain on one's self-image and intimate relationships.
Your urology practitioner in Frankfurt is aware of the many challenges of cancer and takes a holistic view of your health. You will receive a treatment that uses state-of-the-art methods, such as immunotherapeutic approaches, and informs you in detail about every step of the treatment. Thanks to early detection and modern therapies, the prognosis for treatment is usually positive.
