Magnetic resonance imaging/ultrasound fusion-guided transperineal prostate biopsy: Protocol for a clinic-based surgical technique
The transperineal fusion MRI/US biopsy protocol enhances diagnostic accuracy, particularly for anterior lesions, while reducing infections risks. Combining targeted and systematic biopsies improves detection rates of csPCa and offers a standardized, safe approach for clinical implementation.
