Prostate Cancer
Conditions
Brief summary
This study aims to investigate the effect of core number and location optimization for targeted prostate biopsy on pathological accuracy.
Detailed description
This is a single-center prospective study. The investigators perform MRI/US image fusion targeted saturation biopsy on prostate lesions with PI-RADS score 4, to investigate the effect of core number and location optimization for targeted prostate biopsy on pathological accuracy.
Interventions
MRI/Ultrasound fusion saturation biopsy: the core number and location are designed according to the lession condition.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
1. Men more than 18 years old with clinical suspicion of prostate cancer; 2. Serum PSA ≤ 20 ng/ml within the previous 3 months; 3. No evidence of PSA increase by noncancerous factors, such as catheterization, bladder stones, or urinary tract infection including bacterial prostatitis; 4. mpMRI PI-RADS V2.1 score ≥4, diameter of ≤2.5 cm; 5. Able to provide written informed consent.
Exclusion criteria
1. Prior prostate biopsy or prostate surgery; 2. Prior treatment for prostate cancer; 3. Contraindication to MRI (e.g. claustrophobia, pacemaker); 4. Contraindication to prostate biopsy; 5. Men in whom artifact would reduce the quality of the MRI.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The significant prostate cancer detection rate with different combinations of core number and location in the targeted saturated biopsy area | When histology results available, at an expected average of 3 days post-biopsy |
