Abstract
To analyse the detection rates of primary magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-fusion
transperineal prostate biopsy using combined targeted and systematic core distribution
in three tertiary referral centres.
Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mp-MRI) is increasingly used in prostate cancer (CaP). Understanding the limitations of tumor detection, particularly in multifocal disease, is important in its clinical application.
To compare biopsy performance of two approaches for multiparametric magnetic resonance (MR)-targeted biopsy (TB) with that of extended systematic biopsy (SB) in prostate cancer (PCa) detection.
