Can we improve the detection rate of prostate cancer using standard 12-core TRUS-guided prostate biopsy? Focused on the location of prostate biopsy.

More in-depth discussions on the location of standard 12-core prostate biopsy are considered necessary. Apical core and lateral core biopsies may be helpful, especially in patients with prostate-specific antigen ˂10 ng/mL if additional biopsies are planned following findings of no target lesions on imaging studies.
