How much does it generally cost to check for prostate calcification?

Patient's question:

I previously had prostatitis, and in the past few years, it has been well-controlled without recurrence. The other day, I planned to have a follow-up check-up to see if everything was fine, but the result showed the presence of prostate calcification. I am concerned that this condition might affect my health. Could you please tell me: how much does a prostate calcification check generally cost?

Doctor's answer:

Ultrasound is a common method for examining the prostate, with methods such as transrectal detection and suprapubic abdominal detection. It can accurately measure the prostate with an error margin of no more than 5%. It holds significant importance for the definitive diagnosis of various prostate diseases and offers advantages such as simplicity, non-invasiveness, and minimal trauma, as well as rapid results.
Additionally, for patients with prostate calcification during treatment, their dietary condition and care are also crucial. Patients must pay close attention to their diet and consume more light foods to avoid unnecessary harm. It is hoped that the above information will be helpful. Thank you.
