Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in the UK, accounting for 26% of all male cancer diagnoses, and is estimated that 1 in 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime.

The majority of cases occur in older men, although 25% of cases occur in men younger than 65. Whilst the 10 year survival rate is over 80%, prostate cancer is the cause of death in over 10,000 men in the UK alone each year.
