Article Synopsis
- The study compares the effectiveness of targeted biopsy plus regional biopsy (TBx + RBx) against the standard approach of targeted biopsy plus systematic biopsy (TBx + SBx) in detecting clinically significant prostate cancer.
- A meta-analysis of 21 studies showed that TBx + RBx had a similar detection yield of significant prostate cancer compared to TBx + SBx, suggesting that RBx can replace some systematic biopsies.
- The study identifies limitations such as the retrospective nature of the included studies and variability in how regional biopsy was defined, but overall supports using TBx + RBx for prostate cancer detection.
