Pleased to publish #CostEffectiveness data #LATPvsTRUS in @EurUrolFocus
THM:
•average cost TRUS=£917; LATP=£1062 (∵ device cost/takes longer)
•#LATP not cost-effective (QALY)
But...
•only 4m f/u so doesnt account for ⬆️ PCa diag

Really like this little paper we've published in the brilliant new @BJUICompass on 10 yrs of #ASAP at #Oxford_Urology.
THM - not all subsequent biopsies after ASAP are #LowGrade. In fact 24.1% had GG≥2 within 2yrs of diagnosis of ASAP.
