Prostate Cancer Diagnosis: AUA Guidelines on use of PSA Biomarkers, MRI and Biopsy Techniques CME Available: https://auau.auanet.org/node/41113 At the conclusion of this activity, participants will be able to: 1. Apply the Early Detection of Prostate Cancer: AUA/SUO Guideline (2023), and understand the rationale, evidence, level of evidence, strength of recommendation and applications associated with each statement. 2. Identify how to maximize the benefits and minimize the harms of prostate cancer detection by carefully selecting patients and by using the necessary tools to detect clinically significant prostate cancer, while avoiding unnecessary biopsies and detection of clinically insignificant prostate cancers. 3. Identify the evidence supporting the use of PSA for early detection of prostate cancer, and apply that evidence to different clinical scenarios, incorporating patient characteristics and preferences. 4. Identify available blood, urine and tissue biomarkers used to enhance detection of higher-grade prostate cancer, the evidence supporting their use, and the clinical scenarios in which they are most valuable to be used. 5. Use MRI and fusion biopsy to enhance the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer and implement safe biopsy practices with respect to approach, avoidance of infection, and attention to patient comfort; understand the rationale for transperineal prostate biopsy and its technique; be able to establish a transperineal biopsy practice.
