Time trends in socioeconomic inequalities in cancer mortality: results from a 35 year prospective study in British men.

abstract：BACKGROUND:To obtain high-yield histological samples by targeted prostate cancer (PCa) biopsy is the current trend compared with transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided systematic histological biopsy, which is regarded as the gold standard for prostate cancer (PCa) diagnosis. In this paper, we present a targeted PCa imagi...
