Magnetic Resonance Imaging–guided Active Surveillance of Prostate Cancer: Time to Say Goodbye to Protocol-based Biopsies
Traditional protocols for active surveillance (AS) are commonly based on digital rectal examination, prostate-specific antigen (PSA), and standard transrectal biopsy, meaning that initial classification errors and inaccurate lesion monitoring can occur. Protocol-based biopsies are performed to asses...
