New York Moves to Recognize September 2026 as Urological Health Awareness Month
Resolution K 1448 puts a statewide spotlight on prostate and urinary health — and on the fast, non-invasive screening technology helping men detect prostate cancer earlier.
New York is taking steps to shine a greater spotlight on men's health. In May 2026, New York legislators introduced Resolution K 1448, which calls for September 2026 to be recognized as Urological Health Awareness Month in the state. The proposed designation highlights the importance of education, early detection, and conversations about prostate and urinary health.
Men aged 45 and older with no signs or symptoms are eligible for Enhanced Prostate Screening (EPS) — no physician referral required.
Why Urological Health Awareness Month Matters
Prostate cancer remains one of the most common cancers affecting men, making awareness and proactive screening discussions more important than ever. Understanding individual risk factors and discussing appropriate screening options with a healthcare provider can help men make informed decisions about their health.
At Lenox Hill Radiology, we're proud to support efforts that help patients better understand their health and the screening options available to them. Early detection can help identify prostate cancer at a more treatable stage, making education and appropriate screening important parts of protecting men's health.

For eligible men aged 45 and older with no signs or symptoms, Enhanced Prostate Screening (EPS) offers a fast, non-invasive prostate MRI enhanced with AI-assisted technology and expert radiologist review.
