Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the case to obtain an addendum medical opinion regarding whether the Veteran's prostate cancer is active or in remission, as the previous decision did not adequately address this issue.
The deciding factor: The Board determined that a pre-decisional duty to assist error occurred because no addendum opinion was obtained to clarify the status of the Veteran's prostate cancer based on his PSA levels.
