Transrectal Ultrasound Biopsy (TRUS) and Transperineal Biopsy

Transrectal ultrasound biopsy is the more commonly used method for diagnosing prostate cancer. The transperineal biopsy method is used less frequently, but it’s gaining attention for its potential benefits in certain cases. Both types of biopsies have their roles, advantages, and considerations. The choice often depends on your specific medical history, previous biopsy experiences, and the preference of your healthcare provider.
