However, the optimal number of cores to obtain during in-gantry MRGB remains undetermined. Objective To assess the diagnostic yield of incremental cores of the primary lesion and of second lesion sampling during in-gantry MRGB of the prostate. Methods This retrospective study included 128 men with a total of 163 prostate lesion who underwent in-gantry MRGB between 2016 and 2019. The men had a total of 163 lesions sampled with ≥2 cores, 121 lesions sampled with ≥3 cores, and 52 lesions sampled with ≥4 cores. A total of 40 men underwent sampling of a second lesion. Upgrade on a given core was defined as a greater International Society of Urologic Pathology Grade Group (ISUP-GG) relative to the previously obtained cores. Clinically significant cancer (csPCa) was defined as ISUP-GG 2 or greater. Results The frequency of any upgrade was 12.9% (21/163) on core 2, versus 10.7%ing to reduce patient discomfort and procedure times.Vertebral discitis-osteomyelitis is an infection of the intervertebral disc and vertebral bodies that may extend to adjacent paraspinal and epidural soft tissues. Its incidence is increasing, likely from improved treatments for predisposing chronic disease and increased rates of IV drug use and intravascular intervention. Because blood cultures are frequently negative in patients with vertebral discitis-osteomyelitis, biopsy is often indicated to identify a causative microorganism for targeted antimicrobial therapy. The reported yield of CT-guided percutaneous sampling is 31% to 91%, lower than the reported yield of open biopsy of 76% to 91%. However, the less invasive approach may be favored given its relative safety and low cost. If paravertebral fluid collections are present, CT-guided aspiration should be performed. If aspiration is unsuccessf
