The UCSF Prostate Cancer Center provides comprehensive, cutting-edge care to patients with prostate cancer as well as men at high risk of developing the condition. With an emphasis on early screening and detection, the center offers a range of services, from active surveillance for low-risk cancers to the latest techniques for cancers at all stages, whether localized (confined to the prostate gland) or advanced (spread to tissues beyond the pelvis).
