Objective: To determine the accuracy of prostate cancer detection by using magnetic resonance imaging-transrectal ultrasound (MRI-TRUS) fusion image-guided prostate biopsy. Materials and Methods: Retrospective data were collected from the patients that underwent targeted prostate biopsy guided by MRI-TRUS fusion imaging of the prostate between January 2017 and October 2018. The data including age, serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels, PSA density, prostate size, lesion size from multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging of the prostate (mpMRI), Prostate Imaging and Reporting Archiving Data System score (PI-RADS), number of targeted core biopsy, and result from the pathological diagnosis were collected. Detection rate of prostate cancer was analyzed. Results: Ninety-five prostate cancer suspected patients underwent prostate biopsy for 143 lesions. Patients’ analyses showed better overall detection rate of prostate cancer from the MRI-TRUS fusion image-guided prostate biopsy compared to the extended 12-core systematic biopsy at 49.5% versus 17.9%. Significant prostate cancer with a Gleason score of more than 6 was detected by MRI-TRUS fusion image-guided prostate biopsy at 33.7%. Prostate cancer detection rates from MRI-TRUS fusion image-guided prostate biopsy categorized by PI-RADS score 3, 4, and 5 were 21%, 48%, and 74%, respectively, which showed statistically significant detection rate with higher PI-RADS score (p<0.001). Conclusion: The present study showed better prostate cancer detection rate using MRI-TRUS fusion image-guide prostate biopsy with correlation to higher PI-RADS score. Keywords: Gleason score; PI-RADS score; mpMRI; MRI-TRUS fusion image-guided prostate biopsy

Objectives: This study aimed to characterise the accuracy of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) as an adjunct to prostate biopsy, and to assess the effect of the new Australian Medicare rebate on practice at a metropolitan public hospital. Patients and methods: We identified patients who underwent transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy at a single institution over a two-year period. Patients were placed into two groups, depending upon whether their consent was obtained before or after the introduction of the Australian Medicare rebate for mpMRI. We extracted data on mpMRI results and TRUS-guided biopsy histopathology. Descriptive statistics were used to demonstrate baseline patient characteristics as well as MRI and histopathology results. Results: A total of 252 patients were included for analysis, of whom 128 underwent biopsy following the introduction of the Medicare rebate for mpMRI. There was a significant association between Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System v2 (PI-RADS) classification and the diagnosis of clinically significant prostate cancer ( p<0.01). Only one man with PI-RADS ⩽2 was found to have clinically significant prostate cancer. Four men with a PI-RADS 3 lesion were found to have clinically significant cancer. A PI-RADS 4 or 5 lesion was significantly associated with the diagnosis of clinically significant cancer on multivariable analysis. Conclusion: mpMRI is an important adjunct to biopsy in the diagnosis of clinically significant prostate cancer. Our findings support the safety of omitting/delaying prostate biopsy in men with negative mpMRI. Level of evidence: Level 3 retrospective case-control study.

Purpose: To identify the indication for recommending prebiopsy magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to prevent prostate cancer missed diagnoses in cases without prebiopsy MRI.Materials and Methods: Between January 2017 and September 2020, 585 patients suspected with prostate cancer underwent prostate biopsy after MRI. For patients with visible lesions, MRI-targeted biopsy using an image-based fusion program was performed in addition to the 12- core systematic biopsy. Patients for whom MRI was performed in other institutions (n=4) and patients who underwent target biopsy alone (n=7) were excluded.Results: Of 574 patients (median prostate-specific antigen [PSA] level, 6.88 ng/mL; mean age, 68.2 years), 342 (59.6%) were diagnosed with prostate cancer (visible lesions=312/449 [69.5%]; nonvisible lesions=30/123 [24.0%]). The detection rates of visible lesions stratified using the Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System score (3 vs. 4 vs. 5) were 30.9% (54 of 175), 61.2% (150 of 245), and 90.1% (127 of 141), respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that PSA density was a significant factor for presence of visible lesions, prostate cancer, and significant prostate cancer diagnosis. Among patients with positive lesions, 27 (8.2%) were diagnosed with prostate cancer concomitant with negative systematic biopsy results. A PSA density of 0.15 ng/mL/cm<sup>3</sup> was identified as the significant cutoff value for predicting positive target biopsy in groups with negative systematic biopsy. Sixty of the negative target lesions (26.1%) were diagnosed using systematic biopsy.Conclusions: To maximize cancer detection rates, both targeted and systematic biopsies should be implemented. PSA density was identified as a useful factor for recommending prebiopsy MRI to patients suspected with prostate cancer.
