Superior detection of significant prostate cancer by MRI-transrectal ultrasound fusion image-guided biopsy using the BioJet system over transperineal MRI-targeted cognitive biopsy
Abstract:Background
The BioJet system allows the fusion of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images with real-time transrectal ultrasonography to accurately direct biopsy needles to the target lesions. To date, the superiority of targeted biopsy using the BioJet system over cognitive registration remains unknown.
Methods
This retrospective study included 171 biopsy-naïve men with elevated prostate-specific antigen (2.5–20 ng/mL) and MRI-positive lesions; 74 and 97 men underwent a four-core targeted biopsy per MRI-posi… Show more
