MRI/TRUS Fusion-Guided Prostate Biopsy

Definition

MRI/TRUS fusion-guided prostate biopsy is a diagnostic procedure that combines magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) to obtain tissue samples from the prostate gland. This advanced technique allows for more accurate targeting of suspicious areas within the prostate, improving the detection of prostate cancer.
