The Second Prostate Biopsy- Instructions, Techniques and Rationale

As part of the Centennial Celebration for the Henry Ford Health System, The Vattikuti Urology Institute (VUI) held a day-long medical lecture series. Dr. Marc Melser, VUI former Resident and Fellow now in practice in Punta Gorda, Florida talked about reasons for a second prostate biopsy. “You can use it for diagnosis, we can use it for a confirmatory biopsy for active surveillance and we can use it to map the prostate and plan subsequent therapy,” he tells the VUI surgeons and alumni gathered from across the country.
