This study aims to prospectively validate the Fusion CEMEP score to assess the safety and efficacy of omitting systematic prostate biopsy in patients undergoing multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging-targeted biopsy. The main objective is to determine if target-only biopsy guided by the score is sufficient for clinically significant prostate cancer detection while reducing overtreatment and unnecessary cores.
