Arm Label
Standard method
Download onto a biopsy sponge pad
Dowloading the biopsy cores using NavigoBx system
Arm Description
Standard method- shaking the biopsy needle into a formalin container.
Samples will be downloaded by moving the needle notch on a biopsy sponge pad.
Downloading the biopsy cores using NavigoBx™ system. The NaviGoBx™ device is intended for the retention of a biopsy specimen and for preservation of the specimen's in-needle location and orientation.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
percent of tissue loss
percent of biopsy tissue loss during pathologic processing. comparing the core length as recorded on the biopsy needle notch and on the histology slide
Secondary Outcome Measures
prostate cancer detection rate
processing time

Intervention Type
Device
Intervention Name(s)
NaviGo Bx™
Intervention Description
The NaviGoBx™ system is a device and method that enables an accurate reporting of the exact longitudinal location and direction of the biopsy specimen along the needle notch as well as the accurate length of the specimen. Acquiring this information during the biopsy extraction session provides an accurate designation of the location of any later region of interest within the specimen itself to the longitudinal position along the needle mandrel.
Intervention Type
Procedure
Intervention Name(s)
biopsy sponge pad
Intervention Description
the biopsy core is downloaded onto a biopsy sponge pad which is than entered into a biopsy cassette.
