Title: Pre-diagnostic prostate-specific antigen testing and clinical characteristics in men with lethal prostate cancer

Data from a population-based observational study of men dying from prostate cancer showed that many of them did not undergo either prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing before diagnosis or subsequent follow-up if tested. These findings implicate deficiencies in the current opportunistic PSA testing approach.
