Predicting Bone Metastasis in Prostate Cancer Patients Using Total Serum Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) and Serum Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP): A Study at the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital, Accra

This study addresses the global controversy over routine bone scans for newly diagnosed prostate cancer patients, focusing on the Ghanaian population. It aims to assess the predictive value of Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) for bone metastasis and the role of serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in enhancing prediction.
