    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Prostate cancer is a significant health concern.
    • Accurate diagnostic methods are crucial for early detection and treatment.
    • Conventional biopsy techniques may have limitations in accuracy and safety.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a newly developed transrectal ultrasonography-guided prostatic needle biopsy.
    • To compare this method with conventional techniques for diagnosing prostate diseases.

    Main Methods:

    • Prostatic needle biopsy was performed using a real-time linear scanner transrectal ultrasonography.
    • The procedure was conducted on 257 cases in an outpatient clinic and mass screening setting.

    Main Results:

    • The overall success rate of the biopsy procedure was 99.2%.
    • Complications occurred in only 2 cases (0.8%), indicating a high safety profile.
    • The method demonstrated high accuracy in obtaining tissue samples for diagnosis.

    Conclusions:

    • Transrectal ultrasonography-guided prostatic needle biopsy with a real-time linear scanner is a highly effective and safe procedure.
    • This technique is recommended for outpatient clinics and mass screening programs for prostatic diseases.
    • The method is superior to conventional techniques in terms of safety and accuracy.
