PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To demonstrate non-inferiority between the detection rate of clinically significant PCa with 3-dimensional (3D) mp-US + systematic biopsy compared to the detection rate of mp-MRI + systematic biopsy. II. To compare the positive yield of targeted biopsy cores based on mp-US + systematic biopsy with targeted biopsy based on mp-MRI + systematic biopsy, for detection of clinically significant PCa. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To demonstrate non-inferiority of a biopsy approach utilizing targeted biopsy cores based on mp-US compared with targeted biopsy based on mp-MRI, for detection of clinically significant PCa. II. To construct an optimal logistic regression model to predict the presence of clinically significant PCa based on the mp-US elements as well as the prostate specific antigen (PSA), PSA velocity and any other biological variables (e.g., age). OUTLINE: Patients undergo mp-MRI, receive Definity intravenously (IV), and undergo transrectal mp-US and prostate biopsies on study.
