Prostate cancer (PCa) diagnostic and therapeutic work-up has evolved significantly in the
last decade, with pre-biopsy multiparametric MRI now widely endorsed within international …

The current recommendation in patients with a clinical suspicion for prostate cancer is to
perform systematic biopsies extended with targeted biopsies, depending on mpMRI results …

Background The diagnosis of prostate cancer has long been plagued by the absence of an
imaging tool that reliably detects and localises significant tumours. Recent evidence …

Prostate cancer, unlike other cancers, has been sampled in a non-targeted, systematic
manner in the past three decades. On account of the low volume of prostate sampled …

Background Recent guidelines favor transperineal (TP) prostate biopsies over the
transrectal (TR) approach due to a reduced sepsis risk. Yet, evidence from controlled trial …

Introduction The classical pathway for the diagnosis of prostate cancer is transrectal
ultrasound-guided (TRUS) biopsy of the prostate initiated on the basis of a raised prostate …

Prostate biopsy is the definitive investigation to diagnose prostate cancer. The ideal
procedure would be one that offers fast and efficient results safely as an outpatient …

Purpose To evaluate the differences in prostate cancer detection rate and biopsy
effectiveness between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) target biopsy (TB) and …

Purpose This study evaluates the feasibility of performing less than two core biopsies per
MRI-lesion when performing targeted MR-guided in-bore prostate biopsy. Methods …

Objective To compare the diagnostic outcomes of the current approach of transrectal
ultrasound (TRUS)-guided biopsy in men with suspected prostate cancer to an alternative …
