Summary

The gold standard for diagnosing prostate cancer is an ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy. Despite its low complication rates, the procedure can cause significant stress, discomfort and anxiety in patients. This study aimed to determine whether visually introducing the materials (ultrasound, probe, biopsy needle) used during the biopsy could reduce patient anxiety and increase comfort.
