Study Arms (1)
MRI-ultrasound fusion device
EXPERIMENTALUsing the Focal-Fusion Bx device, the urologist will fuse ('coregister') the MRI to the TRUS imaging
Interventions
The Focal-Fusion Bx device uses hardware and software to overlay targets onto the live ultrasound image in real-time. This allows the urologist to take biopsy samples from tissue that looked suspicious on the patient's MRI.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Adult male subjects up to 80 years of age
- Candidates for fusion biopsy
- Elevated PSA levels
- MP-MRI with lesions having a Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) score greater than or equal to 3 (determined by a trained radiologist)
- Subject is willing and able to read, understand and sign the Informed Consent Form document
You may not qualify if:
- Previous treatment for prostate cancer
- Any contraindication to a standard TRUS prostate biopsy procedure
- Refusal to sign the Informed Consent document
