Fred Lee,P J Littrup,P J Littrup,P J Littrup,S.T. Torp-Pedersen,S.T. Torp-Pedersen,S.T. Torp-Pedersen,C Mettlin,C Mettlin,C Mettlin,T A McHugh,T A McHugh,T A McHugh,J.M. Gray,J.M. Gray,J.M. Gray,G H Kumasaka,G H Kumasaka,G H Kumasaka,R D McLeary,R D McLeary,R D McLeary +21 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that transrectal US is more sensitive than digital examination in the detection of prostate cancer, and the authors advocate broader implementation and evaluation of trans rectal US as a tool for early detection.

TL;DR: Over a 7-month period, from a total of 417 transrectal ultrasound (US) studies, 45 transperineal biopsies of the prostate were performed in the radiology department, and twenty-two of 32 hypoechoic lesions were proved by histologic study to be cancerous.

Fred T. Lee,Peter Littrup,R D McLeary,G H Kumusaka,G S Borlaza,T A McHugh,M H Soiderer,L D Roi +7 more
