Core Tip	Although prostate cancer is found in about 30% of patients at the initial biopsy session, there is a need to identify those with a negative result but who are at high risk. Although individual risk factors have been found to be associated with cancer, patient counseling requires the integration of multiple risk factors to obtain a prediction for the individual. We developed a nomogram that predicts a positive biopsy after a previous negative biopsy session. It provides a wide range of probabilities for cancer and may help clinical judgment of whether to do a repeat prostate biopsy.
