In this episode of Your Body Podcast, we're back on the East Coast with a powerful and insightful conversation about prostate cancer, men's health, and how early screening can save lives.

Dr. John Melnick, board-certified radiologist with a special focus on oncology and prostate imaging, shares how his background as a sculptor influences his 3D understanding of the human body—and why he views radiology as both an art and a science.

From PSA testing and MRI innovation to the emotional impact of diagnosis, Dr. Melnick breaks down:

  • Why prostate cancer screening should start at age 45
  • How MRI is revolutionizing early detection
  • The difference between diagnostic and screening prostate MRIs
  • What men (and the women who love them) should know about risk, BPH, and PSA scores
  • How AI is transforming radiology for better accuracy and faster results
  • The story of how a Chinese New Year party helped detect cancer early in a friend

Plus, learn how Enhanced Prostate Screening is making access to life-saving imaging easier than ever.
