Abstract:
A biopsy-free diagnostic pathway in prostate cancer (PC) is limited by the diagnostic accuracy of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI). The improved accuracy of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) raises the question whether this imaging modality can complement mpMRI to safely avoid biopsy prior to radical prostatectomy (RP). In this case series, we report the feasibility of primary RP without prior biopsy based on a high suspicion of signif...     »
