Biopsy Guidance: TRUS is crucial for guiding biopsies, ensuring samples are taken from the most suspicious areas of the prostate. This increases the accuracy of diagnosis and reduces the risk of false negatives. Tissue Characterization: TRUS helps in characterizing the texture and density of prostate tissues, which can provide insights into potential malignancies or other pathological conditions. Tumor Localization: For patients with diagnosed prostate cancer, TRUS aids in localizing tumors within the prostate, which is essential for planning surgical interventions or radiation therapy.
