Impact of using 29  MHz high-resolution micro-ultrasound in real-time targeting of transrectal prostate biopsies: initial experience

ConclusionHigh-resolution micro-ultrasound identified clinically significant cancer that would have, otherwise, been missed by both MRI fusion and systematic biopsy and was useful in both biopsy na ïve and repeat negative patients. Early results from this small, single-center cohort are promising, particularly given the ease with which micro-ultrasound can replace the conventional ultrasound in standard prostate biopsy procedures.
