A positive Real-Time Elastography (RTE) combined with a Prostate Cancer Gene 3 (PCA3) score above 35 convey a high probability of intermediate- or high-risk prostate cancer in patient admitted for primary prostate biopsy.

Entering PCA3 and RTE in a clinical model encompassing age, PSA and Pvol; PSA, Pvol and PCA3 were independent predictors of intermediate-risk and high-risk PCa while RTE showed a tendency toward significance (Table 3 ).

In the logistic regression analysis PCA3 as well as a positive RTE contributed to the clinical model although RTE achieved a p-value close to significance (0. 068).
