Patterns of prostate-specific antigen testing by remoteness of residence and socio-economic status: An Australian population-based study.

The prostate-specific antigen testing behaviour differs between community groups in Australia. Men were less likely to have had a screening prostate-specific antigen test the farther they lived from the major cities. This highlights the need for a more targeted approach to achieve an equitable and evidence-based prostate cancer care across all sectors of the community.
