Penile Cancer Staging


If cancer is found, the first step in treatment depends on the cancer’s stage (the extent of a cancer), and whether or not it has spread from the penis to other tissue or organs. Doctors may use one of several types of imaging, such as a CAT scan, MRI, or ultrasound, to determine if the cancer is confined to the penis or if it has spread.
