Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Prostate Volume on Actual MRI

    Time frame: Within one month after the fiducial placement

    A post-procedure MRI performed within one month after the fiducial placement.

  2. Prostate Volume on US reconstruction

    Time frame: During the fiducial placement

    A US 3-D sweep will be performed during the fiducial placement.

  3. Prostate Volume based on US/EM reconstruction

    Time frame: During the fiducial placement

    A 3-D US sweep performed during the fiducial placement and a Electromagnetic tracking data will also be acquired at the same time, and then the two series of data will be used for US/EM reconstruction.
