Our hearts go out to Sir Chris Hoy and his family following the announcement of his terminal cancer diagnosis. His courage in sharing his journey has inspired many and raised awareness. According to the BBC, his openness led to a nearly sevenfold increase in visits to the NHS England website for prostate cancer symptoms, with over 14,000 people accessing information in just 48 hours—a powerful testament to his bravery and impact. As a six-time Olympic champion, Sir Chris continues to be a hero, showing incredible resilience and positivity while facing #prostatecancer. His legacy now extends beyond sports, reminding us all of the importance of #earlydetection. #ChrisHoy #Olympics #Cycling Learn more about Chris’s story here: NHS https://bit.ly/3YnTu9G | BBC https://bit.ly/4ecwDn3 Photo: The Guardian

Recent research suggests that the transperineal approach to prostate biopsies could replace the transrectal approach sooner than expected. Studies led by Dr. Jim Hu, published in JAMA Oncology, indicate that transperineal biopsies minimize infection risks while delivering high diagnostic accuracy. At Promaxo, we're proud to lead this shift in care. The Promaxo MRI System enhances the patient experience by offering unparalleled confidence, comfort, and convenience via targeted, transperineal prostate biopsies-all in the comfort of the urologist's office. The future of prostate care is here.
