Denied
The Board denied service connection for residuals of prostate cancer, finding no evidence that the Veteran's condition was related to his active military service or exposure to ionizing radiation.
The deciding factor: The VA medical opinions and lack of confirmed in-service exposure to ionizing radiation led to a negative nexus opinion regarding the Veteran's prostate cancer being related to his active duty service.
