Resumen
Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men. Traditionally, prostate cancer is diagnosed via transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy, using a systematic random template. Using multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging, lesions suspicious for prostate cancer can be identified, and subsequently targeted on biopsy, allowing for increased diagnostic accuracy. This article reviewed the current literature surrounding various types of targeted biopsy, such as transperineal biopsy, allowing for comparison not only between targeted biopsy and systematic biopsy, but also between different varieties of targeted biopsy.
