New ultrasound technique aims to sharpen prostate cancer detection
NCT ID NCT05761912
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether analyzing ultrasound images with computer software (radiomics) can better predict prostate cancer during a targeted biopsy. About 464 men aged 55 and older with suspicious prostate findings will participate. The goal is to see if this method finds more cancers than standard biopsy approaches.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Age ≥55 years old. 2. Patients had tPSA/fPSA within 1 month before biopsy. 3. Patients had any of the following indications for prostate biopsy: * Suspicious prostate nodules were found by digital rectal examination * Suspicious lesions were detected by B-ultrasound or MRI * PSA\>10ng/ml * PSA 4-10ng/ml, with abnormal f/tPSA and/or PSAD values Exclusion Criteria: 1. malignant tumors other than prostate adenocarcinoma indicated by pathology. 2. Combined with other malignant tumors (such as rectal cancer, bladder cancer, testicular cancer, etc.) that may affect the imaging findings of transrectal ultrasound or mpMRI. 3. Other conditions that would preclude needle biopsy: cachexia, decompensation of organ function, hemorrhagic diseases, local infection, etc
