Needle biopsy of the prostate has been widely practiced for more than twenty-five years, whereas transrectal aspiration biopsy, first described fifty years ago, has not. We describe our experience using the transrectal aspiration biopsy and correlate the results with histologic studies of the prostate...
Results : Biopsies revealed prostate cancer in 16 of 130 patients (12.3%)with serum PSA 4–10 ng/mL and in 10 of 64 patients (15.6%) with serumPSA 10–20 ng/ml. In both PSA groups free PSA and f/t PSA levels werestatistically significant, where total PSA levels were not. In ...
The aim of this study is to determine results of high prostate specific antigen (PSA) or abnormal digital rectal examination driven prostate biopsies performed in our Department in men aged 75 or more and to show the characteristics of pathology results. The hospital records of the patients who ...
Multiparametric MR imaging is currently the best noninvasive imaging modality for diagnosis of prostate cancer, providing some indication of histologic grade. With the benefit of MRI targeting, biopsy results obtained with the fusion devices can accurately identify and characterize cancers and appropriately...

In prostate cancer, digital rectal examination (DRE) and serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) are used to evaluate the risk of prostate cancer. However, in published community-based screening samples, not all patients with abnormal test results pursue biopsy. To test the existence of and quantify...
