Abstract

Conclusion: Accurate clinical charting and information is highly critical for quality patient care and follow up ; The utilization of MRI fusion biopsy identified prostate cancer in 60.7% of screened patients compared to historical 25% using standard biopsy ; Our results show the potential need for a charting template that captures all relevant information, otherwise there is variable and incomplete data collection. This demonstrates the potential need for a phase 2 of this project.
