“I wish I hadn’t chosen that treatment.” For many men with localized prostate cancer, decision regret is a painful reality. Studies show that clear communication, decision aids, and shared decision-making can help patients feel more confident and supported in their choices. keep reading

For decades, standard TRUS biopsies relied on 12+ random needles—missing aggressive cancers up to 46% of the time and increasing risks of infection. Today, real-time MRI-guided biopsies use just 2–4 precisely targeted needles, giving doctors clearer answers with fewer side effects. Discover why MRI-guided precision is changing prostate cancer diagnosis. keep reading
