What are the disadvantages of Prostate Biopsy test?
The test results are inconclusive if the biopsy sample does not contain enough tissues.
As a biopsy test collects tissue from small areas, chances of missing a cancerous growth are possible.
Normal biopsy results do not rule out cancer, and if the tests are positive for cancer it has to be confirmed with other tests - Prostate Specific Antigen, bone scan, lymph node biopsy, CT scan.
