Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of music on anxiety and perceived pain during transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy.
Materials And Methods: Forty consecutive men with an elevated serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) level and/ or an abnormal digital rectal examination referred for transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy were recruited and allocated to a music (n = 20) or a non-music (n = 20) group. Anxiety was assessed prior to and after biopsy and pain was assessed after biopsy in each patient using visual analog scales (VAS) in the same setting, and group anxiety scores were compared.
Results: Patients in the music group experienced less anxiety (P = .046) during the procedure, but group pain scores were not significantly different.
Conclusion: Music was found to decrease anxiety effectively during transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy.

Objective: A prostate ultrasound (US) imaging omics model was established to assess its effectiveness in diagnosing prostate cancer (PCa), predicting Gleason score (GS), and determining the likelihood of distant metastasis.
Methods: US images of patients with prostate pathology confirmed by biopsy or surgery at our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Regions of interest (ROI) segmentation, feature extraction, feature screening, and the construction and training of the radiomics model were performed.

Objectives: to construct a prediction model for clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) based on prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels, digital rectal examination (DRE), and transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS).
Methods: We retrospectively analysed 1196 Asian patients who underwent transrectal ultrasound-guided biopsy (TRUSB) between June 2000 and February 2023. Patients were randomly divided into a training set of 837 cases (70%) and a validation set of 359 patients (30%).

Rationale And Objectives: To assess the predictive value of MRI-based radiomics of periprostatic fat (PPF) and tumor lesions for predicting Gleason score (GS) upgrading from biopsy to radical prostatectomy (RP) in prostate cancer (PCa).
Methods: A total of 314 patients with pathologically confirmed prostate cancer (PCa) after radical prostatectomy (RP) were included in the study. The patients were randomly assigned to the training cohort (n = 157) and the validating cohort (n = 157) in a 1:1 ratio.

Introduction Prostate cancer remains the most prevalent cancer among men and continues to present a significant public health challenge globally. The disease's growing prevalence has heightened the demand for skilled professionals capable of obtaining histological samples for accurate diagnosis, as tissue biopsy remains the cornerstone for diagnosing prostate cancer. Surgical care practitioners have become integral to the surgical team, and their roles have expanded to include performing biopsies.

Background: The detection of prostate cancer (PCa) via conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels within the grey zone remains challenging. Whether synthetic MRI can provide supplementary benefits for the accurate diagnosis of PCa in this specific population is still unknown. This study aims to investigate the diagnostic performance of synthetic MRI for differentiating PCa lesions from noncancerous lesions in patients with PSA levels within the grey zone (4-10 ng/mL).
