For men suspected of having prostate cancer, a Gleason Score is used to determine the severity and plan treatment options.

To determine a man’s Gleason Score, a doctor must examine biopsied cells under a microscope and assign a grade to the cancer cells from 1-5. Healthy tissue is given a lower number, and tissue that looks like cancer is given a higher number.

Most prostate cancers contain cells that are different grades, so the two most common grades are used and added together. A score of 7 or above usually requires treatment.
