Is magnetic resonance imaging-targeted biopsy a useful addition to systematic confirmatory biopsy in men on active surveillance for low-risk prostate cancer? A systematic review and meta-analysis.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:To examine, in a retrospective analysis of outcome based on prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels, whether the 1992 and revised 1997 staging criteria for prostate cancer can be used to predict progression-free survival for patients after radical prostatectomy for pT2 and pT3 prostate cancer.
