A multicentre randomised controlled trial assessing whether MRI-targeted biopsy is non-inferior to standard transrectal ultrasound guided biopsy for the diagnosis of clinically significant prostate cancer in men without prior biopsy: a study protocol
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-specific antigen (PSA). An alternative pathway is to perform multi-parametricMRI (MPMRI) to localise cancer and to use this information to influence the decision for, and conduct of, a subsequent biopsy, known as an MP...
متن کاملMRI-Targeted Biopsies versus Systematic Transrectal Ultrasound Guided Biopsies for the Diagnosis of Localized Prostate Cancer in Biopsy Naïve Men
INTRODUCTION To compare, in the same cohort of men, the detection of clinically significant disease in standard (STD) cores versus multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) targeted (TAR) cores. MATERIAL AND METHODS A prospective study was conducted on 129 biopsy naïve men with clinical suspicion of prostate cancer. These patients underwent prebiopsy mpMRI with STD systematic biopsie...
متن کامل[Transrectal ultrasound-guided biopsy of the prostate].
The early detection of prostatic neoplasm is nowadays a primary need in the urological field. The availability of transrectal ultrasound equipment alongside with bioptic tools made possible that transrectal ultrasound-guided biopsy of the prostate became the standard procedure to achieve this goal. With this work we would like to confirm the efficacy of this method which is also associated with...
متن کاملUltrasound-guided transrectal extended prostate biopsy: a prospective study.
AIM To evaluate the diagnostic value of the 10 systematic transrectal ultrasound-guided (TRUS) prostate biopsy compared with the sextant biopsy technique for patients with suspected prostate cancer. METHODS One hundred and fifty-two patients with suspected prostate cancer were included in the study. Patients were entered in the study because they presented with high levels of prostate specifi...
متن کاملA MRI Compatible Device for MRI Guided Transrectal Prostate Biopsy
This paper reports a novel remotely actuated device for transrectal prostate biopsy, designed for use in a conventional high-field MRI scanner. The device provides three-dimensional MRI guided biopsy needle placement with sub-millimeter accuracy under physician control. Its compact size enables use in both closed and open configuration MRI scanners. Preliminary in-vivo canine experiments demons...
