Screening method

  • Before microscopy, look at each microscopy slide by eye, to plan the microscopy screening so as to not miss peripheral fragments.
  • Screen at low power, and switch to high power when encountering glandular structures that can not otherwise be cleared. Look in particular for those surrounding nerves.
  • In addition to adenocarcinoma, also look for inflammation.[notes 1]

Notes

  1. Inflammation can explain for example a high PSA value.
