Biopsies guided by high resolution ultrasound are as effective as those using MRI in diagnosing prostate cancer, an international clinical trial has shown. The technology, called micro-ultrasound, is ...

Precisely delivered ultrasound could be an effective treatment for prostate cancer, with high-frequency sound waves heating and killing off cancer cells, a new study says. The treatment killed off all ...

A multicenter clinical study in Austria has shown that a new, highly precise ultrasound approach can successfully target and treat early prostate cancer while preserving patients' quality of life.

Earlier this week, researchers presented data from the OPTIMUM (Optimization of Prostate Biopsy – Micro-Ultrasound Versus MRI) trial at the European Association of Urology Congress in Madrid, Spain.

One in eight men will develop prostate cancer in their lifetime. Surgery to treat the disease can lead to unwelcome side effects. A minimally invasive alternative that avoids surgery is now available ...

TULSA reduces tumor volume and PSA levels, improving urinary and sexual function in prostate cancer patients. Five-year TACT study data shows 80% of patients had no significant disease after one year, ...

Barry Swartz, a 69-year-old Lewistown resident, underwent high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment for prostate cancer at Penn State Hershey Medical Center.

Routine prostate cancer screenings save lives, yet some men still avoid them. However, making the process more streamlined increases the likelihood that men will get the tests they need to catch ...
