First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study compares two prostate biopsy techniques to see which one better detects clinically significant prostate cancer. About 592 men with a suspicious MRI lesion will be randomly assigned to receive either targeted plus perilesional biopsy or targeted plus systematic biopsy. The goal is to find a method that accurately diagnoses important cancers while reducing unnecessary sampling.
