Summary

The objective of the study is to examine the effectiveness and accuracy of the BioXbot in prostate biopsy as opposed to transrectal biopsy. This evaluation of the efficacy of both the procedures is based on:

* Uptake rate
* Peripheral zone reachability
* Needling accuracy
* Procedure execution time
* Post operative discomfort or trauma experienced by patient
* Quality and type of tissue sample extracted
* Adverse and unanticipated side-effects on patient after the procedure and recording any unexpected reactions
