Prostate biopsy, a frightening procedure... but a lifesaver.
When a PSA level is high or an MRI shows a suspicious image, prostate biopsy is often the next step.
It confirms (or not) the presence of cancer.
In concrete terms?
🧬 Small samples are taken from the prostate using a very fine needle, under general or local anesthesia.
📍 Most often rectally.
⏱️ The examination takes just a few minutes and is performed on an outpatient basis.
Well-informed and well-supported, patients experience this examination with greater peace of mind.
This is what simple, clear, human communication is all about.
