[China guideline for the screening and early detection of prostate cancer (2022, Beijing)].

Prostate cancer (PC) is one of the malignant tumors of the genitourinary system that occurs more often in elderly men. Screening, early diagnosis, and treatment of the PC high risk population are essential to improve the cure rate of PC. The development of the guideline for PC screening and early detection in line with epidemic characteristics of PC in China will greatly promote the homogeneity and quality of PC screening. This guideline was commissioned by the Bureau of Disease Control and Prevention of the National Health Commission. The National Cancer Center of China initiated and convened a working group comprising multidisciplinary experts. This guideline strictly followed the World Health Organization Handbook for Guideline Development and combined the most up-to-date evidence of PC screening, China's national conditions, and practical experience in cancer screening. A total of fifteen detailed evidence-based recommendations were provided with respect to the screening population, technology, procedure management, and quality control in the process of PC screening. This guideline aimed to standardize the practice of PC screening and improve the effectiveness and efficiency of PC prevention and control in China.前列腺癌是好发于老年男性的生殖系统恶性肿瘤。前列腺癌高风险人群筛查与患者的早诊早治对提高前列腺癌治愈率至关重要。制定符合中国国情的前列腺癌筛查与早诊早治指南，将促进中国前列腺癌筛查的同质性和规范性，提高前列腺癌筛查的效果。中国前列腺癌筛查与早诊早治指南受国家卫生健康委员会疾病预防控制局委托与指导，由国家癌症中心发起，联合多学科专家，根据《世界卫生组织指南制定手册》的原则和方法，整合近年来国内外在前列腺癌筛查与早诊早治方面的新进展，同时考虑中国前列腺癌筛查的实际经验，针对前列腺癌筛查对象、技术、流程、质控等15个关键问题给出了详细的循证推荐，旨在规范前列腺癌筛查与早诊早治实践，提升中国前列腺癌防控效果。.
