Participating in the study of early detection of prostate cancer will help you get important information about your health and if necessary, timely examinations and treatment. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men, and it can be successfully treated when detected early.

The aim of the study is to assess the feasibility of conducting a screening program in Estonia that considers men's individual risk of developing prostate cancer. The study helps to identify men with high risk of prostate cancer, while reducing the number of unnecessary diagnostic and treatment procedures in low-risk men. The study consists of multiple stages and begins with a blood test to measure the level of prostate-specific antigen (PSA). Men with PSA test result exceeding a threshold are referred to visit a urologist and subsequent procedures will be conducted at healthcare facilities.

For online booking you will need to identify yourself using your ID-card, Mobile-ID, or Smart-ID. To book by phone, by calling <a href='tel:17123'>17123</a> or <a href='tel:+3726408231'>+372 6 408 231</a>, you will need your personal identification number. You can choose the most convenient location for you to give a blood test. You will be asked to provide your consent to participate in the study and to the processing of your personal data.

When going to the blood sampling cabinet please bring along a valid identification (ID-card, passport). It is recommended to refrain from ejaculation and bicycle riding 48 hours prior to the blood test, as these activities may affect the PSA value.

You can give a blood sample for PSA test until December 31, 2024.

You will be personally informed of the PSA test result using your preferred method of contact. You can additionally check your test result in the Health Information System (<a href='//www.terviseportaal.ee' target='_blank'>www.terviseportaal.ee</a>). You will also receive further instructions.

The study is carried out by the National Institute for Health Development in collaboration with the Estonian Health Insurance Fund, Estonian Association of Urology, Tartu University Hospital, the North Estonia Medical Center, East Tallinn Central Hospital, and SYNLAB Estonia.
