Probability of Prostate Cancer Diagnosis following Negative Systematic and Targeted MRI: Transrectal Ultrasound Fusion Biopsy: A Real-Life Observational Study
Abstract:<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> The risk of occult prostate carcinoma (PCa) after negative multiparametric MRI (mpMRI)-transrectal fusion biopsy (F-Bx) is unknown. To determine the false-negative predictive value, we examined PCa detection after prior negative F-Bx. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Between December 2012 and November 2016, 491 patients with suspected PCa and suspicious mpMRI findings underwent transrectal F-Bx. Patients with benign pathology (<i>n</i&g… Show more
