Overview
Tab Title Description
Study type
InterventionalDescribes the nature of a clinical study. Types include:
- Observational study — observes people and measures outcomes without affecting results.
- Interventional study (clinical trial) — studies new tests, treatments, drugs, surgical procedures or devices.

About this study
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the detection rates of MRI-targeted prostate biopsies compared to standard 12-core trans-rectal ultrasound guided (TRUS) prostate biopsies for prostate cancer.
Participation eligibility
Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate. There is no guarantee that every individual who qualifies and wants to participate in a trial will be enrolled. Contact the study team to discuss study eligibility and potential participation.
Inclusion Criteria

- Fit to undergo all procedures listed in protocol
- Able to provide written informed consent
Exclusion Criteria
- Prior prostate biopsy
- Prior treatment for prostate cancer
- Contraindication to MRI (e.g. claustrophobia, pacemaker, estimated glomerular filtration rate ≤ 50mls/min)
- Contraindication to prostate biopsy
