Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a novel diagnostic strategy for prostate cancer, in which men with a moderate risk of prostate cancer are monitored using PSA and MRI instead of immediate biopsy,. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is it safe to delay biopsy, making sure that clinical significant prostate cancers are not often missed? * Does it reduce unnecessary biopsies and overtreatment?
