July 10, 2025, Thursday – How to read your Pathology Report?

Please watch the following new ASPI video: Cracking the Code on Pathology Reports: Helping Patients Navigate Medicalese and Get Better Health Results Confirmation. To learn how to read your biopsy report and understand Gleason scores. 

We always heard that PCa patients cannot get detailed information from their doctors. Now the 2025 European Guidelines on Prostate Cancer are free to download as a reference for patients/doctors. Their aims are "Guidelines can never replace clinical expertise when making treatment decisions for individual patients, but rather help to focus decisions, also taking personal values and preferences/individual circumstances of patients into account." 

請觀看以下ASPI最新英語影片：解密病理報告：幫助患者理解醫學術語並獲得更準確的健康結果確認。學習如何閱讀活檢報告並理解格里森評分。

如要了解前列腺癌的分期與分级，可觀看這國語影片。前列腺癌的分類，可到此中文網站。

我們經常聽說前列腺癌患者無法從醫生那裡獲得詳細資訊。現在，英文的2025年歐洲前列腺癌指南可供免費下載，供醫生與病患參考。指南的目標是 “在為個別患者制定治療決策時，指南永遠無法取代臨床專業知識，而應該幫助患者專注於、將患者的個人價值觀、偏好、患者情況納入考量。”

SIRvivor BC: Prostate Cancer Exercise Program

SIRvivor BC is a specialised exercise program for men 19 years of age or older who have been diagnosed with prostate cancer, in any stage of treatment or recovery, and at any fitness level, ability, and background. The program focuses largely on strength development through resistance-based exercise. It helps you improve muscle endurance, meet new people, and learn safe and effective exercises.

Why? The majority of men who have had a prostate cancer diagnosis are not meeting the recommended exercise guidelines. SIRvivor BC provides a structured environment where you can learn and practice safe, effective exercises and help you meet exercise recommendations. Resistance-based exercise may also help combat some side effects of long-term prostate cancer treatment, such as decreased muscle strength and bone density. SIRvivor BC also allows you to interact with men who share similar experiences to you and build your community. SIRvivor BC has been successfully piloted in BC, Calgary and Halifax, and results showed men improve their body composition, flexibility, dynamic balance and muscular endurance.

What? SIRvivor BC runs for 6 to 12 weeks, consisting of 2 one-hour sessions each week. The exercises are easily modified to be manageable for each individual, and the program is run by certified fitness trainers who have specific knowledge on working with men who have had a prostate cancer diagnosis.

Who? The SIRvivor BC program is run by the Prostate Cancer Supportive Care (PCSC) Program. The PCSC Program is a comprehensive cancer survivorship program developed at the Vancouver Prostate Centre, located at Vancouver General Hospital, serving people across British Columbia. The SIRvivor BC program is part of their provincial initiative to support men with prostate cancer to be more physically active.
