MRI-guided Transurethral Urethral Ultrasound Ablation for the Treatment of Low to Intermediate Grade Prostate Cancer (NCT05438563)
Focal Prostate Ablation for Low to Intermediate Grade Cancer Utilizing TULSA Profound System
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This clinical trial tests whether the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided transurethral ultrasound ablation (TULSA) procedure is safe and effective in treating patients with low to intermediate grade prostate cancer. MRI-guided TULSA ablation is a minimally invasive procedure that uses an ultrasound device guided by MRI imaging to deliver high-energy sound waves, producing very high temperature to ablate (destroy) tumor cells in a targeted manner. The MRI-guided TULSA procedure may help patients avoid surgery and help improve prostate cancer patients' quality of life.
