Prostate cancer is the most common cancer found in men in the UK. Cases have increased in recent years, although the number of deaths due to prostate cancer has remained relatively stable.
It is thought that the number of cases have risen significantly because of an increased number of incidental findings rather than an actual increase in prevalence - i.e. the cancer has been detected during tests or scans directed at other conditions.
If access to Specialist Treatment centres is important, choose a policy with London Hospital coverage.
