Oncology Peer Review On-The-Go: Matthew Allaway, DO, on Transperineal Biopsy Approach for Prostate Cancer

Podcast

Matthew Allaway, DO, spoke with CancerNetwork® about a new transperineal biopsy approach to detect cancer in hard-to-reach areas of the prostate.

CancerNetwork® spoke with Matthew Allaway, DO, founder and chief executive officer at Perineologic, about a new prostate cancer biopsy technique that uses a transperineal approach to detect cancer in harder to reach areas of the prostate.

Allaway touched on the American Cancer Society’s annual report, “Cancer Facts & Figures 2022,” which indicated the rate of advanced-stage prostate cancer cases have increased in recent years. He also detailed a companion study to the report, and walked through the specific details and benefits of this biopsy technique.
