About this study

Patients undergoing Focal Cryotherapy, Focal HIFU, Focal IRE, Focal Laser ablation, or other partial gland ablation modalities for prostate cancer will be recruited.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Maximum Gleason score 4+4
  • Maximum cancer volume 1.5 ml (up to 2 lesions) or 3 ml (single lesion)
  • Maximum Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) level 15 ng/dl
  • Maximum clinical stage T2c
  • American Society of Anesthesiologist Criteria 2 or less

Exclusion criteria

Device

Ablation of <75% of the prostate gland for limited volume prostate cancer

Other names: Cryotherapy, High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU), Irreversible Electroporation (IRE), Nanoknife, HIFU, Cryoablation, Laser, Microwave ablation
