The study investigates the effectiveness of multiparametric ultrasound compared to multiparametric MRI in diagnosing clinically significant prostate cancer among at-risk patients.
Conducted in seven UK hospitals, the research involved patients undergoing both imaging techniques, followed by targeted biopsies regardless of test results.
The goal was to assess the agreement in identifying suspicious lesions between the two methods, specifically looking at their capability to detect significant cancer indicated by higher Gleason scores.
