Updates to Early Detection of Prostate Cancer: AUA/SUO Guideline (2026)
This update provides several new insights, including revised strength of evidence based on recently published literature on the use of MRI in biopsy-naïve patients and biopsy techniques, updates on available biomarkers, and revised recommendations for atypical small acinar proliferation. This Guideline will require future review and updates, as early detection and diagnostic strategies in this space continue to evolve.
