Introduction: Purpose of this study is to evaluate the detection rates of prostate cancer (PCa) for cognitive-targeted biopsy (CTB) in comparison with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided biopsy (MRGB) related to prostate imaging reporting and data system (PI-RADS) score, lesion location and lesion volume. Furthermore, the addition of systematic transrectal ultrasound-guided biopsy (TRUS-GB) to CTB is evaluated. Materials and Methods: We included all patients with cancer-suspicious lesions on 3-Tesla multiparametric MRI who underwent either CTB and additional TRUS-GB or only MRGB (in-bore) in Haga Teaching Hospital between January 2013 and January 2015. Results: In total 219 patients were included: 64 CTB + TRUS-GB and 155 MRGB. In 32 (50%) men with CTB was positive for PCa. PI-RADS 3-, 4- and 5-lesions were in 17, 69 and 95% positive, respectively. In 100 men (65%) with MRGB was positive for PCa. Detection rates for PI-RADS 3-, 4- and 5-lesions were 10, 77 and 89%, respectively. CTB missed 4 (11%) low-grade tumors detected by TRUS-GB. In lesions between 0-1.5 ml PCa were significantly more often detected with MRGB than with CTB (69 vs. 39%). Conclusion: CTB has a high detection rate of PCa in men with cancer-suspicious lesions on MRI. Correction for lesion volume shows that in lesions < 1.5 ml MRGB is more accurate than CTB. The addition of TRUS-GB to CTB can safely be avoided without missing any high grade PCa.
