ABSTRACT

Prostate cancer is the most common solid malignant tumor among men in Western countries. While the incidence of prostate cancer is relatively low in Asia. In recent years, the incidence of prostate cancer in Asia is growing rapidly due to the development of social and economic level, popularization of people's health awareness and technological progress of health medicine in Asian countries. However, the uneven level of economic, social, human and medical aspects in Asian countries has also brought some difficulties and challenges to the standardized diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. Based on the Asian population, combined with the characteristics of Asian countries, this paper will explore the future directions of prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment in Asia from the development of prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment in China.
