Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of death in men, second only to heart disease. Prostate cancer has become the most diagnosed cancer in the U.S., with more than 300,000 men diagnosed in 1996, while another 40,000 died from prostate cancer. As the population ages, these numbers will increase every year.To increase public awareness about this disease, the American Cancer Society has launched a "National Prostate Cancer Week".
