Each year, more than a million transrectal biopsies are performed in the United States. The primary technique for diagnosing and monitoring prostate cancer, a transrectal biopsy, entails removing ...

A large screening trial showed that using prostate-specific antigen density (PSAD) before MRI prevented overdiagnosis and lowered resource use while preserving the detection of clinically significant ...

A multicenter randomized trial compared transperineal prostate biopsy without antibiotic prophylaxis versus transrectal biopsy with targeted prophylaxis, examining infections, prostate cancer ...

Investigators conclude that transperineal biopsy should be the standard of care for prostate biopsy. Prostate biopsy using a transperineal approach has a cancer detection rate similar to that of a ...
