A comparison of magnetic resonance imaging techniques used to secure biopsies in prostate cancer patients.

This article reviews the current imaging techniques used to secure biopsies in patients with a suspicion of PCa. The advantages and limitations of each technique are described. Expert opinion: Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) and subsequent targeted biopsy have improved the diagnostic accuracy of PCa detection in men with an elevated or rising serum PSA. Prostate lesions visible on mpMRI are easily targeted during either in-bore MRI guided biopsy, cognitive fusion biopsy or MRI-TRUS fusion biopsy. PMID: 31277551 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
