Prostate Magnetic Resonance Imaging, with or Without Magnetic Resonance Imaging-targeted Biopsy, and Systematic Biopsy for Detecting Prostate Cancer: A Cochrane Systematic Review and Meta-analysis (European Urology)

In all men suspected to have clinically significant prostate cancer, the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) pathway, including prostate MRI and MRI-targeted biopsy, may represent a more favourable diagnostic test than systematic biopsy, which is the current standard practice. Therefore, performing prostate MRI before any biopsy should be structurally incorporated in the diagnostic work-up.
