Background
Although one in eight men will develop some form of prostate cancer (PCa) within their lifetime, not all PCa is of high-risk of progression. In such cases active surveillance (AS) provides an alternative to radical treatment (Hamdy et al....

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate if the use of micro-ultrasound can detect clinically significant prostate pathology when compared to histology obtained during a transperineal prostate biopsy. Methods: Patients suspected of having p... Read More about Evaluating the Role of Ultrasound in Prostate Cancer trial – phase 1: Early experience of micro-ultrasound in the United Kingdom.
