Transurethral MR-HIFU for the treatment of localized prostate cancer
Methods In contrast to transrectal approaches, transurethral ultrasound applicators are simple in construction and designed for single use. Delivery of ultrasound from within the prostate gland avoids passing energy through sensitive structures, and enables rapid tissue ablation. Tissue is coagulated radially outwards from the urethra, with the depth of treatment controlled based on the tempera...
متن کاملMRI-guided transurethral ultrasound prostate ablation: midterm outcomes of a phase I clinical trial
Background/introduction MRI-guided transurethral ultrasound ablation (TULSA) is a new minimally-invasive modality for the treatment of prostate cancer, which aims to provide local disease control with low morbidity. A transurethral ultrasound device generates a continuous volume of thermal coagulation that is shaped precisely to the prostate using realtime MR thermometry and active temperature ...
متن کاملLocalised prostate cancer treated with MRI-guided transurethral ultrasound ablation: phase I trial results
Purpose Purpose of this prospective, multi-institutional Phase I clinical study was to investigate whether MRI-guided transurethral ultrasound ablation (MR-TULSA), a novel minimally-invasive technology to treat organ-confined prostate cancer (PCa), is safe, feasible and effective. It employs directional plane-wave high-intensity ultrasound, which ablates prostate tissue using real-time thermome...
متن کاملPET and MRI-guided focused ultrasound surgery for hypoxic-tissue ablation combined with radiotherapy in solid tumors
Background: The rationale was to develop an ablation approach to destroy regions of tumor resistant to radiation and thus reduce the time required for whole tumor ablation, while improving overall tumor control after radiotherapy. Materials and Methods: The system is composed of a micro positron emission tomography (mPET), 7T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and a customized MRI-compatible foc...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance image guided transurethral ultrasound prostate ablation: a preclinical safety and feasibility study with 28-day followup.
PURPOSE We determine the safety and feasibility of magnetic resonance image guided transurethral ultrasound prostate ablation using active temperature feedback control in a preclinical canine model with 28-day followup. MATERIALS AND METHODS After a long acclimatization period we performed ultrasound treatment in 8 subjects using the magnetic resonance image guided TULSA-PRO™ transurethral ul...
