Guan Hee TanMalaysia Speaker Transperineal Fusion Biopsy of Prostate: Tips and TricksTransperineal MRI-ultrasound fusion biopsy has emerged as a highly accurate and safe approach for prostate cancer diagnosis. The transperineal approach to prostate biopsy offers high precision in diagnosing clinically-significant prostate cancer while minimizing infection risks. This semi-live video presentation demonstrates a step-by-step approach to the procedure using the Koelis platform, focusing on optimal setup, image registration, and targeted sampling techniques. Key aspects include patient positioning, probe fixation, and system calibration to ensure accurate fusion of pre-procedural MRI with real-time ultrasound. I will highlight strategies for efficient lesion targeting, including trajectory planning, and needle deployment when performing this procedure. This video aims to provide viewers with a clear, practical guide to performing transperineal fusion biopsy on the Koelis system, enhancing diagnostic accuracy and procedural efficiency.
