Prostate biopsies encounter numerous obstacles throughout the diagnostic process, impacting patient outcomes as well as the overall efficiency and accuracy of cancer detection. These challenges not only affect patient care but also have adverse effects on the financial stability and long-term success of medical practices. Download the white paper to discover strategies for maximizing precision and overcoming the two primary challenges that urologists face when diagnosing prostate cancer.
Overcoming Challenges in Prostate Biopsy Diagnostic Process
Refining Biopsy Workflows for Advanced Detection
Targeted biopsies are two to three times more sensitive to prostate cancer.
