Comparing Three Different Techniques for Magnetic Resonance Imaging-targeted Prostate Biopsies: A Systematic Review of In-bore versus Magnetic Resonance Imaging-transrectal Ultrasound fusion versus Cognitive Registration. Is There a Preferred Technique?

TLDR
It is shown that magnetic resonance imaging-guided biopsy detects more clinically significant prostate cancer (PCa) and less insignificant PCa compared with systematic biopsy in men at risk for PCa.

Use of prostate systematic and targeted biopsy on the basis of multiparametric MRI in biopsy-naive patients (MRI-FIRST): a prospective, multicentre, paired diagnostic study.

TL;DR: Obtaining a multiparametric MRI before biopsy in biopsy-naive patients can improve the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer but does not seem to avoid the need for systematic biopsy.

Prostate MRI, with or without MRI‐targeted biopsy, and systematic biopsy for detecting prostate cancer

TL;DR: The diagnostic accuracy of the index tests MRI only, MRI-targeted biopsy, the MRI pathway and systematic biopsy as compared to template-guidedBiopsy as the reference standard in detecting clinically significant prostate cancer as the target condition was determined.
