Who is Well-Suited for Focused Ultrasound Therapy?
Organ-Confined Prostate Cancer
Conventional treatments are associated with significant side effects. They are more aggressive than
necessary for low- and intermediate-risk prostate cancer.
Interested in preserving urinary and erectile function
Many men are not willing to sacrifice their quality of life to treat prostate cancer. There are options today that don’t require a choice between one or the other.
Dissatisfied with Active Surveillance
Leaving cancer growing inside your body is a source of anxiety for most men. Less-invasive treatments
with minimal side effects are available today, so you can put your disease permanently out of your
mind.
Why...
Why Consider a Minimally-Invasive Prostate Treatment?
No Hospital Stay
Focused ultrasound surgery is an outpatient procedure, and you can return to the comfort of your home the same day. You will return to normal activities within a few days.
No Incisions or Radiation
Focused ultrasound therapy is non-ionizing and uses no radiation. All devices are inserted through the rectum or urethra so no surgical incisions are required.
Reduced Side Effects
Focused ultrasound has a lower side effect profile than surgery or radiation. You don’t have to choose between treating your cancer or preserving your life.
Durable Cancer Control
5- and 10-year follow-up data with TULSA Pro and Transrectal HIFU confirm that these technologies have the same cancer control as radiation or surgery.
Keep future treatment options open
Focused ultrasound treatment doesn’t complicate future treatments if the need should arise. It is also the best option for men with local recurrence after radiation therapy.
Personalized treatment plan
Using your biopsy, PSA and medical imaging results, we will design a treatment plan that meets your goals. It’s not a binary decision between all or nothing.
