Official Title: PRAMA (Prostate Resection After Microwave Ablation) MRI/Ultrasound Fusion Guided Transperineal Targeted Microwave Ablation for Prostate Cancer
Brief Summary:
This phase I trial tests the safety of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)/ ultrasound (US) fusion guided transperineal targeted microwave ablation (TMA) before a radical prostatectomy (RP) and how well it works in treating patients with prostate cancer.Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men and most will never become aggressive.Despite this, most men choose to undergo treatment which may include surgery.Removing the prostate gland and sometimes the lymph nodes (radical prostatectomy) is an…
