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).

Prostate cancer is the second most prevalent cancer among elderly males in Western countries. TRUS biopsy remains a standard diagnosing approach for prostate cancer but poses notable risks, particularly in older men, including complications such as sepsis, acute retention, and rectal bleeding, which can lead to substantial morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to evaluate cancer-specific survival outcomes in men aged over 80 years and whether there is any cancer-specific survival advantage for TRUS biopsy procedure.

Background: Transperineal (TP) biopsy is increasingly used as an alternative to standard transrectal (TR) biopsy for prostate cancer detection to reduce infection risks. However, evidence on comparative diagnostic accuracy remains inconclusive. The aim of this study was to perform an updated systematic review and meta-analysis of studies comparing prostate cancer detection rates between TP and TR ultrasound biopsies.
