Summary

The hypothesis of the study is that targeted MRI/US fusion-guided prostate biopsy with additional systematic transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided biopsy significantly detects more prostate cancers than targeted MR-guided in-bore prostate.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

MR-guided in-bore prostate biopsy

Patients of arm A receive a targeted MR-guided in-bore prostate biopsy. From each prostate lesion defined in the diagnostic multiparametric MRI two targeted biopsy cores will be taken.

DEVICE

MRI/US fusion-guided prostate biopsy

Patients of arm B receive a targeted MRI/US fusion-guided prostate biopsy. From each prostate lesion defined in the diagnostic multiparametric MRI two targeted biopsy cores will be taken. Immediately after targeted biopsy patients undergo additional systematic TRUS-guided biopsy (12 biopsy cores)
