Saturation Biopsy

Saturation Biopsy is a prostate biopsy technique that, as a specialized form of systematic biopsy, involves obtaining a significantly higher number of tissue samples from predetermined regions of the prostate gland than in standard biopsy protocols to increase the detection rate of clinically significant cancer foci, particularly in cases of prior negative biopsies or suspicion of prostate cancer despite previous inconclusive results.
