The University of Illinois Hospital and Health Sciences System will offer free prostate screening before the Chicago Bears kickoff against the San Diego Chargers. A free food buffet will be provided for the first 100 registrants.
A simple blood test can measure the level of prostate-specific antigen, or PSA, in the blood and can be used to screen for prostate disease. Prostate cancer is most common in African-American males and is one of the most common killers in men over age 50.
