prostatepedia magazine covers

 

Prostatepedia features informal conversations with doctors, patients, and activists about prostate cancer. Each month they tackle a different topic facing prostate cancer patients today—from how imaging has impacted treatment to dealing with erectile dysfunction after radiation or surgery to the evolving field of immunotherapy.

Prostatepedia Magazine (quarterly) and the weekly Prostatepedia Digests became part of NASPCC starting with the August 2020 issue.

Best Practices

Early Detection, Treatment and Care

The National Alliance of Prostate Cancer Coalitions has adopted the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Prostate Cancer Best Practices Guide as its official guide regarding prostate cancer early detection, treatment, and care.

Informed Decision Making

NASPCC has joined with the California Prostate Cancer Coalition (CPCC) to develop best practices for informed decision making criteria for screening, treatment and quality of life options. CPCC has developed an Informed Decision Making laminate that incorporates those criteria and is designed to help men and their doctor with the informed decision making process. The laminate can be accessed here on the CPCC website.
