Recent advances of multimoda ultrasound in image-guided prostate-targeted biopsy

摘要

Prostate-targeted biopsy is usually the preferred method over systematic biopsy because it can effectively detect prostate cancer using only a few puncture cores with fewer complications.With the development of ultrasound,it has gained multimodal technological upgrades,such as the emergence of contrast-enhanced ultrasound,ultrasound elastography,and three-dimensional ultrasonography.Moreover,multimodal ultrasound has played an increasingly significant role in prostate-targeted biopsies.
