Study Summary

This clinical trial studies an ultrasound-based imaging procedure called elastography using the Aixplorer system in diagnosing prostate cancer in patients undergoing biopsy. Ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images of internal structures. Elastography uses ultrasound imaging techniques to examine the stiffness or elasticity of a tissue and may enhance the detection of prostate cancer. It is not yet known whether elastography imaging using the Aixplorer system works better than standard ultrasound imaging in detecting prostate cancer.

Interventions

  • PROCEDURE Ultrasound-Guided Prostate Biopsy
  • PROCEDURE Shear Wave Elastography
  • PROCEDURE Ultrasound Elasticity Imaging
