<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Although the exact date of the test wasn&#8217;t disclosed, Biden was around 72 years old at the time, which falls in line with current medical guidance and recommendations on who should take a test.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Current screening recommendations suggest men age 55 to 69 should discuss the benefits and harms of a PSA test with their doctor and make an individual decision when or if they need it. Men 70 and older should not receive PSA-based screening because of the risk of false positives, according to the <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://www.uspreventiveservicestaskforce.org/uspstf/recommendation/prostate-cancer-screening" target="_blank">United States Preventive Services Task Force</a>.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">&#8220;Prior to Friday, President Biden had never been diagnosed with prostate cancer,&#8221; the spokesperson said in a statement.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Biden announced Sunday that he had an aggressive form of prostate cancer that had spread to his bones.</p>

<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">A PSA screening is not a perfect test, medical experts say.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">The older a person is, the more the risk of false positives and unnecessary biopsies increases. Conversely, some people with cancer might have good PSA scores. PSA screening is highly debated among doctors in terms of when it&#8217;s appropriate to use.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Biden&#8217;s representatives said the former president had a routine physical last week and doctors <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://abcnews.go.com/US/small-nodule-found-joe-bidens-prostate-recent-physical/story?id=121743026" target="_blank">discovered</a> a small nodule in his prostate.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Since his diagnosis was revealed two days ago, President <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://abcnews.go.com/alerts/jd-vance" id="_ap_link_Donald Trump_JDVance_" target="_blank">Donald Trump</a> <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://abcnews.go.com/US/strongest-broken-places-joe-jill-biden-amid-cancer/story?id=121943243" target="_blank">questioned</a> the timing of the announcement and claimed that &#8220;somebody is not telling the facts.&#8221;</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">&#8220;I&#8217;m surprised that it wasn&#8217;t, you know &#8212; the public wasn&#8217;t notified a long time ago because to get to stage nine &#8212; that&#8217;s a long time,&#8221; Trump said Monday.</p>
