Abstract
Image-guided bone tumor biopsies can be successfully used to acquire cellular and molecular material for analyses in patients with osteoblastic prostate cancer metastases. Diagnostic yields are significantly increased in lesions with areas of radiolucency, density ⤠475 HU, ill-defined margins, and interval growth and in patients with alkaline phosphatase > 110 U/L.
