Prostate cancer is the most common cancer amongst men with over 60,000 cases per year. Prostate cancer can very often be treated if identified early enough. Only a quarter of men over over 45 take up the offer of screening. The campaign, also supported by the Stiftung Urologische Gesundheit (Urological Health Foundation), is aimed at reaching as many people as possible and removing taboos from the subject of early diagnosis of prostate cancer. “At Bayer 04, we have made urological screening an integral part of medicals,” said Dr. Dittmar.
