About the episode
Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer for Australian men, and if diagnosed early, is relatively easy to treat. But men from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds are more likely to be diagnosed with high-risk, or advanced prostate cancer than other Australians. That's according to new research from Monash Rural Health in Victoria, which finds those born in another country are more likely to miss out on vital early screenings.
