In general, the most commonly used ones in routine urological practice are prostate-specific antigen (PSA) determination, digital rectal examination (DRE) and, depending on the results and findings obtained, an ultrasound-guided transrectal prostate biopsy (TPB).<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0005"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1,2</span></a> However, the frequency of positive biopsies for prostate cancer remains low. Although TPB is widely used to guide the needle, its clinical utility is compromised by an unsatisfactory positive predictive value (PPV).<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a> In this context, a limitation of the technique is reflected on the relatively low specificity for the detection of hypoechoic nodules in the peripheral area (PA). Hence, different authors have suggested the need not only for biopsies of possible nodules, but also a randomized sextant system.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0020"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4–6</span></a> Systematic sextant biopsy under ultrasound control generally shows prostate cancer in 20–30% of men with serum PSA levels from 4.1 to 10<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>ng/ml and in 50–67% of those with PSA levels higher than 10<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>ng/ml.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7,8</span></a></p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In an attempt to overcome the constraints of standard diagnostic methods, new techniques have been developed. Among these, color Doppler ultrasound (CDU) has been described as being more sensitive than grayscale imaging in traditional ultrasound. Rifkin et al. were the first to suggest that most of the cancers detected in the PA and visible on transrectal ultrasound showed hypervascularization when analyzed by CDU.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0045"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span></a> Thereafter, the distribution of signals as shown by CDU on a normal prostate gland has also contributed to clarify the changes in that pattern in relation to malignancy.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0050"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">10</span></a> Nonetheless, its use could be limited in the clinical setting since there is evidence that the addition of CDU increases PPV, but decreases sensitivity for the detection of prostate cancer.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0055"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">11,12</span></a> Furthermore, blood flows in small cancerous lesions are difficult to identify.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0055"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">11,13</span></a> Pelzer et al. studied a total of 380 patients with PSA levels between 4 and 10<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>ng/ml, assessing the results obtained when using Doppler ultrasound plus an intravenous contrast substance compared to traditional grayscale ultrasound.

In the last decade, serum PSA measurement as a screening test has played a central role in this strategy. However, the frequency of positive biopsies for prostate cancer is still low among men, with serum PSA levels between 4.1 and 10<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>ng/ml, and many of them undergo unnecessary procedures.

According to this, PD would increase sensitivity and would help identify the appropriate sites for biopsy. Okihara et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0095"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></a> reported a high performance of PD in the detection of prostate cancer, with a sensitivity of 98% and a NPV of 99%. These results suggest that PD could reduce the number of unnecessary biopsies in patients with abnormally elevated PSA levels in the blood. In more recent years, the combination of the Doppler procedure with the use of intravenous contrast has provided satisfactory results, increasing cancer detection rates with elevated Gleason scores and decreasing the number of samples taken, both in patients undergoing first-time prostate biopsy<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0145"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">29</span></a> and in those with a previous diagnosis of high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0150"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">30</span></a> In the present work, the diagnosis of prostate cancer was found in 48 patients (43%) out of the total of 111 patients included in this study. The rate of false negatives was significantly lower in the case of PD (19%) when compared to grayscale TPB (35%) and DRE (33%). According to our results, among the total of patients evaluated, there were 36 with hypoechogenicity characteristics plus hypervascularization, 23 (63%) of whom were positive at biopsy, suggesting that those sites with alterations on the gray scale (hypoechogenic) associated with hypervascularization at PD should be firmly considered for biopsy taking. When carrying out the same analysis, it caught our attention that cancer was only found in 8 (26%) patients out of the 30 who showed hypoechogenicity with normal vascularization, whereas the diagnosis of cancer was positive in 16 (70%) cases of the 23 who showed normal echogenicity with hypervascularization. The findings shown herein would indicate that PD could provide more useful information for the selection of the sites considered to be biopsied. In the study carried out by Ho et al., they determined that the sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV for PD were 66.7, 24.4, 19.4 and 73% respectively<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0100"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">20</span></a>; more recently, Sauvain et al. used PD for the detection of low-risk prostate cancer (PSA<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span><<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>10<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>ng/ml) in a total of 243 patients, finding sensitivity, specificity and PPV values of 87, 71 and 85% respectively.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0155"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">31</span></a> Consistently with what other authors have published, this study demonstrates a superiority of the results of prostate cancer detection tests in favor of PD, basically due to the fact that its sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV were higher than those of the other 2 methods taken into consideration (DRE and grayscale TPB). For a PSA range between 4 and 10<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>ng/ml, PD would show greater usefulness, although it is clear that the number of patients studied within this range of values was small.</p><p id="par0080" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">It is important to bear in mind that for some authors it is relevant to consider the existence or not of palpable nodules when choosing an interventionist practice pattern,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0055"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">11,32</span></a> which is in concordance with our results, since there were only 3 patients where the biopsy was positive while having normal DRE and PD.</p><p id="par0085" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">On some occasions, it is hard to differentiate between cancerous lesions and inflammatory areas by using PD, since both can show hypervascularization areas.

It is speculated that enlarged prostate tissue requires greater vascular flow. Prostate calculi would seem to be a cause of confusion which may hide a cancerous lesion in the transition area. Since prostate calculi are generally located in the border between peripheral and transition areas, their acoustic shadow can interfere with ultrasound observation in the transition area.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0165"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">33</span></a> The results found in the present work showed a total of 9 patients with a positive biopsy and PD with normal flow, which shows similarity with what has been expressed by other authors regarding the restrictions of this method.</p><p id="par0090" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">It is worth mentioning that nowadays new imaging methods are gaining in importance regarding the diagnosis of prostate cancer, as in the case of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

However, the results of his study also revealed an asymmetry in blood flow, despite the lithotomy position. On the other hand, a 60-MHz transrectal transducer was used.
