Adam B. Murphy, MD, discusses the Stockholm3 blood test, which determines prostate cancer risk and may help reduce unnecessary prostate biopsies. Dr. Murphy and colleagues aimed to find out whether this blood test could improve prostate cancer detection in patients from diverse groups in the United States and also reduce unnecessary prostate biopsies in patients with benign or low-grade prostate cancer.
In this 9-minute presentation, Sigrid Carlsson, MD, PhD, MPH, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, New York, reviews groundbreaking advancements in prostate cancer screening and data from the past year.

Understanding Your Hormones
Estradiol (E2)
A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido.
Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.
DHT
Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth,
prostate health, and masculinization effects.
Free Testosterone
The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins.
Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
