Conventional Cognitive Freehand versus Software-Supported, Volumetric-Optimized Systematic Ultrasound-Guided Prostate Biopsy: A Head-to-Head Comparison

Our results showed that VOT has better diagnostic performance than CFT in detecting significant PCa (defined as Gleason Score ≥7). Taking the study limitations into consideration, the corroboration of our results in other cohorts would promote their generalizability.

Abstract

Our results showed that VOT has better diagnostic performance than CFT in detecting significant PCa (defined as Gleason Score ≥7). Taking the study limitations into consideration, the corroboration of our results in other cohorts would promote their generalizability.
