The stainless steel urethral component of the PUL does cause artefact, which is confined to the posterior transition zone only. PUL artefact occurs in an area of the prostate that has a very low incidence of a single focus of prostate cancer. If there is concern for prostate cancer in the posterior TZ (e.g. if every other area is clear with a high PSA), this area can undergo targeted biopsy.
