there's also percent free psa analysis. so it's not just the psa alone that we rely on or nor velocity to be able to look at the whole picture, combine that with a digital rectal examination, and make a determination whether this patient will truly benefit from the next stage of workup, which is a biopsy. - how many opinions should a man get if he is told, "you have prostate cancer"? - i usually advise my patients that you should get as many opinions until you feel comfortable. now, sometimes that can lead to more confusion, but at the same time, because there is no definite answer in regard to what is the best way to manage patients with early-stage prostate cancer, i think each patient has a different level of comfort level. i do believe you should at least get one other opinion of a different specialty, because we all do have biases towards what we do, and i think in order to get more balanced opinions about what may be available or may be most effective, that you should at least get one other consultation outside a part

obviously a lot of news about the psa test. the message people seem to be taking is that it could do more harm than good. and that really no one should be getting it on a regular basis. what do you say to that news, first of all, those recommendations? >> i think the first part may be accurate for some patients. i think the second part to abandon psa testing will set us back. we've seen a 40% reduction in prostate cancer mortality in the past two decades. i don't think we want to go backwards. i think ending psa testing completely is the wrong thing to do. >> reporter: in your practice, will you still order the test? >> yes. i'll order it in well-informed patients who are at risk for the disease. the other important thing is if they're found to have prostate cancer, we will treat selectively. that is that one of the big achilles heels of psa testing is that you identify some cancers from not needing to be treated. in this country they're often treated. that is the down side. we need to stop that. we need to use the testing more

doctors know how the psa kin n nettics work and most of the psa screening are beaased on population.ra it's for the group, if you have risk, family history, african-americans, if your psa has been going up over time and those are red flags and someone who is comfortable, a doctor who does deal with psa or prostate cancer every day, get in their hands and multiple opinions before you say no more testing, that's quite dangerous. >> rick: there are a lot of people around the country, doctor, who don't live near a metropolitan area who are near teaching hospitals like new york and other places in the country and mayor live in a rural area and smalltown, the doctors might not have that level of experience dealing with this particular thing. >> you know, i see your point is well taken so we really need to educate our doctors and surgeons to have better outcome. not necessarily put our heads in the sand and say we don't want to know about formation and no more testing. another thing happened with mammogram and same thing i assume with colonoscopy. with the financial resources that are going

is there a chance of a false positive on this psa?there's the chance of a false positive in every chemical test. i don't know how often it happens but sometimes, some enlargement, benign enlargement of the prostate will raise the psa and you don't want to generate a lot of anxiety. i think in making a decision about the psa, the doctor does the physical exam, sees what the prostate feels like, are there any lumps, nodules, anything suspicious? then he has the test. in a perfectly normal prostate physical exam, i don't see that the psa is needed. >> eric: all right, doctor. >> jamie: and the new guidelines so definitely talk to your doctor about that one. all right, there's a new study that finds people who have advanced cancer are more likely to have low levels of vitamin d. now, doc, i know you believe in vitamin d just about for everybody. cancer patients especially. 4>> i don't know that adding vitamin d in those circumstances makes a difference. i think it's an observation that has -- doesn't require any kind of intervention. as f

they say the psa test does more harm potentially than good, that it barely reduces deaths and leads to a lot of unnecessary treatment and complications. now will is already some pushback. for example, the head of the prostate cancer foundation, a patient group, calls the new recommendation "a terrible mistake." the american neurological association says they are still working on their response. to help me sort it out for you, i'm with dr. christopher lega i legathitis. what will you tell your patients now if anything different based on what's just happened? >> i think first of all, i haven't received the official report or had the chance to review it in detail. but based on the availability information, the dilemma that we discussed in the clinic every day is actually reflected in this decision which suggests that there is harm and purely focused on the benefits of detecting cancer ignores the fact that many patients are exposed to the risk of overtreatment and its complications. i think the most accurate figure that exists on this is approximately 44 interventions need to be made in o

should they take these psa blood tests or not? >> you know what, wolf?is a very difficult decision every man has to make with his doctor. on the one hand, you might catch a fast-growing cancer. on the other hand, you might catch a slow-growing cancer and be compelled to treat it. if you test men you've got a less than 1% chance of finding one of these harmful cancers. you're 47 times more likely to find one of the smaller cancer cancers where again you really would have been better off not knowing about it at all. odds are you'll find one of the cancers that you really in many ways don't want to find. >> elizabeth cohen reporting. >>> still ahead, the federal loan scandal involving a bankrupt solar energy company leads to a high-level resignation. >>> a california bank gets busted for having child porn. you'll never believe who turned him in. it's 27 minutes past the hour. >>> good morning to you. it is friday. happy friday. it's october 7th. this is your a.m. wake-up call. i'm carol costello joining you live from new york. it's 31 minutes past the hour.
