Focal Ablation With Focal Cryotherapy or HIFU for the Treatment of Men With Localized Prostate Cancer
Sponsor: Marc Dall'Era, MD
Summary
This clinical trial evaluates the effectiveness of focal ablation with either focal cryotherapy or high intensity frequency ultrasound for the treatment of men with localized prostate cancer. Focal cryotherapy kills tumor cells by freezing them. High intensity frequency ultrasound uses highly focused ultrasound waves to produce heat and destroy tumor cells.
