“…The smaller number of specimens removed by MRI-GB reduces the risk of injury. MRI-GB is less invasive since specimens are removed in a more directed manner based on prior MRI findings, which reduces injury to adjacent structures compared with systematic TRUS-GB (6,11). It is presumable that lower invasiveness and removal of fewer specimens with MRI-GB resulted in less intense pain in our patients.…”

“…For example, Taira et al (25) demonstrated a yield of 47% of prostate cancer in men with previous negative biopsy, with a high prevalence of occult anterior tumors diagnosed in that study, although results were not limited to anterior lesions. Additional alternative approaches include MRI-guided (in-bore) biopsies (26); however, the hardware and expertise for this approach is less widely available than MRI-directed cognitive fusion-guided biopsy of the anterior prostate tumors • 91 Figure 3. a-f. A 63-year-old man considering active surveillance for minimal volume low-grade prostate cancer.…”

“…When either of these yields abnormal results, systematic transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided biopsy is typically performed. Systematic TRUS-guided biopsy has low sensitivity (39-53%) but high specificity (81-82%) for detecting prostate cancer (44).…”
