Study Arms (4)

PET+/mpMRI+ group

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients in this group will undergo 68Ga-PSMA PET/mpMRI imaging, and the results show positive findings on both PSMA PET and mpMRI. These patients will undergo prostate biopsy guided by PSMA PET/CT.

Diagnostic Test: Prostate biopsy guided by PSMA PET/CT

PET+/mpMRI- group

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients in this group will undergo 68Ga-PSMA PET/mpMRI imaging, and the results show positive findings on PSMA PET and negative on mpMRI. These patients will undergo prostate biopsy guided by PSMA PET/CT.

Diagnostic Test: Prostate biopsy guided by PSMA PET/CT

PET-/mpMRI+ group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients in this group will undergo 68Ga-PSMA PET/mpMRI imaging, and the results show negative findings on PSMA PET and positive on mpMRI. These patients will undergo prostate biopsy guided by mpMRI and US.

Diagnostic Test: Prostate biopsy guided by mpMRI/US

PET-/mpMRI- group

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Patients in this group will undergo 68Ga-PSMA PET/mpMRI imaging, and the results show negative findings on both PSMA PET and mpMRI. These patients will undergo systematic prostate biopsy.

Diagnostic Test: Systematic prostate biopsy

Interventions

The patient will undergo pelvic non-contrast CT imaging. After co-registration of the CT images with 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT data at corresponding anatomical levels, a percutaneous gluteal approach will be utilized for CT-guided prostate biopsy.

PET+/mpMRI+ groupPET+/mpMRI- group

The patient will undergo transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) prostate scanning. After co-registration and precise image fusion of TRUS findings with multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) data, a transperineal percutaneous approach will be employed to perform TRUS-guided prostate biopsy.

PET-/mpMRI+ group

The patient will undergo systematic prostate biopsy under TRUS guidance.

PET-/mpMRI- group
