Impact of Local Anesthesia Type on Cancer Detection Rate in Transrectal Ultrasound Guided Prostate Biopsy
Non-randomizedFactorialOpen-labelDiagnostic
Summary
Transrectal ultrasound guided prostate biopsy (TRUS-Bx) is the gold standard method for prostat cancer diagnosis. Cancer detection rate is an important issue in TRUS-Bx. Effective biopsy protocol is necessary to enhance cancer detection rate during the procedure. Patient tolerance may improve the protocol effectiveness and quality. Adequate patient tolerance with optimal local anesthesia may enhance cancer detection rate in TRUS-Bx.
