Well, it sure beats the taking of a dozen or so samples of the prostate for biopsy.

Painful biopsy!!! is correct. When I was Dx’d with PCa a couple of years ago, it was after a procedure that I will explain if anyone is interested. Butt, I bet you can guess most of it...OUCH!

The doctor’s “gadget” attempts to diagnose it in seconds - that seem like hours ... where does the gadget in this report have to live for those 30 minutes, he said with a clenched, er, ah, fist - yeah, that’s it, fist. No, wait ... oh, nevermind.

Just had a good friend go through the biopsy. They don’t take one tissue sample, they take ten. I’ll go with the gadget, thanks.

Toronto researchers have developed a portable device they say will accurately diagnose prostate cancer in 30 minutes.

And knowing Canada care and Obamacare, there will be a 2-3 year wait for your turn to be diagnosed by this device.

The Canadian Health Care system will only buy 3 devices to save money so there will the a 3 year wait for the test.
