Background: In patients with multiparameter magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) low-possibility but highly clinical suspicion of prostate cancer, the biopsy core is unclear. Our study aims to introduce the biopsy density (BD; the ratio of biopsy cores to prostate volume) and investigates the BD-predictive value of prostate cancer and clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) in PI-RADS<3 patients.
Methods: Patients underwent transperineal template-guided prostate biopsy from 2012 to 2022.
The myodural bridge (MDB) is a dense connective tissue that connects muscles with the cervical spinal dura mater via the posterior atlanto-occipital and atlato-axial interspaces. To date, the physiological function of the MDB has not been fully elucidated. Recent studies have identified the presence of the MDB in mammals, but very little information is available on the existence of the MDB in avifauna.
