This trial uses a ultra high-resolution ultrasound system and specialized transducer, intended for use in prostate imaging. The system's image resolution is significantly better than the standard of care, due to its higher frequency. This allows the system to visualize suspicious areas and structures, and for greater accuracy for guided biopsy. The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that ultra high-resolution transrectal ultrasound (UHR-TRUS) is superior to conventional low-resolution transrectal ultrasound (LR-TRUS) in detecting clinically significant cancer among men without known prostate cancer and with an indication for prostate biopsy. The secondary objective of this study is to compare the difference in the rate of detection of clinically significant cancer between LR-TRUS and UHR-TRUS, from before investigator training to after investigator training. The tertiary objective for the investigation is to compare the combined sensitivity and specificity in determining cancer detection overall for image-guided biopsy in UHR-TRUS vs. LR-TRUS.
