HCA starts rapid clinic for prostate cancer
A new Rapid Prostate Clinic at HCA’s The Princess Grace Hospital offers fast testing and diagnosis of conditions for those with an elevated PSA – including a follow-up consultation discussing results and treatment plans.
It will use the latest ‘gold-standard’ in multi-parametric MRI (mpMRI) scanning for the prostate.
Combining this with blood and urological tests, a complete overview of the patient’s condition can be given on the same day.
HCA said the clinic offers a multidisciplinary approach to patient care, which could include as many as 20 cross-specialism doctors with nutritionists and physiotherapists working together.
