Abstract
Background/Aims: Controversial clinical guidelines have recommended against widespread prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing, despite evidence suggesting a benefit in certain populations. This study evaluates the impact of the publication of prostate cancer screening trial results in 2009 and changes to the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) guidelines in 2012 on temporal trends in the use of PSA tests among men 40–80 years old, with follow-up through 2013.
