| Abstract |
The sensitivity of prostate specific antigen (PSA) increases with lower threshold values but with a corresponding decline in specificity. Magnetic resonance imaging/ultrasound (MR/US) targeted biopsy has been shown to detect prostate cancer (PCa) more efficiently and of higher grade than standard 12-core transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) biopsy, but the optimal population for its use is not well defined. We aimed to evaluate the performance of MR/US targeted versus 12-core biopsy across a PSA continuum. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 03 February 2015.
All research outputs
#14,515,473
of 25,748,735 outputs
Outputs from The Journal of Urology
#40
of 114 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#112,956
of 243,072 outputs
Outputs of similar age from The Journal of Urology
#4
of 6 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,748,735 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 114 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.2. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 64% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 243,072 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 53% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 6 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 2 of them.
