The authors performed US-guided biopsy on 30 consecutive patients with prostatic masses of an undefined nature. Two samples were taken from each patient, one using an aspirating needle and another using a cutting needle. The two techniques proved to be quite complementary, even in the light of subsequent diagnostic follow-ups. Moreover, the possibility of comparing the cytological findings with the pathologic ones, with a "double blind" technique, greatly increased bioptic reliability.
作者对30例连续的前列腺肿物性质不明的患者进行了超声引导下活检。每位患者取两份样本，一份使用抽吸针，另一份使用切割针。即使根据后续的诊断随访来看，这两种技术也被证明是非常互补的。此外，采用“双盲”技术将细胞学检查结果与病理检查结果进行比较的可能性，大大提高了活检的可靠性。
