	abstract = {We reviewed the role of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MP-MRI) and methods of MRI guided biopsy including in-bore, cognitive fusion, and software-based fusion. MP-MRI has been developed, optimized, and studied as a means of improving prostate cancer detection beyond the standard evaluation that utilizes digital rectal examinations and serum prostate specific antigen (PSA). MP-MRI has been proven to be an excellent diagnostic imaging modality that improves prostate cancer detection and risk stratification by guiding biopsy samples. The co-registration between MRI and ultrasound has allowed for software-based fusion which enables office-based biopsy procedures while still benefiting from the detailed prostate characterization of MRI. MP-MRI/ultrasound fusion guided biopsy has been studied in detail as this technology has been developed, tested, and validated in the past decade. The imaging to pathology correlation supporting the use of MP-MRI/ultrasound fusion is well documented in the literature. As the indication for the use of prostate MP-MRI becomes more widespread, it is important to continue to evaluate the correlation between imaging and pathologic findings.},
