Hemi-Gland Cryoablation for Prostate Cancer at UCLA
About
Brief Summary
This is a prospective data collection of men who are electing to undergo prostate hemi-gland cryoablation.
The purpose of this observational research study is to investigate the localized treatment of prostate cancer using hemi-gland cryoablation. UCLA patients undergoing hemi-gland cryoablation are a unique cohort compared to prior research because all patients at UCLA have had a pre-treatment multi-parametric MRI and Ultrasound fusion targeted biopsy; they will be followed in a similar fashion. This results in more precise assessment of a target region of cancer for ablation which may, in turn, result in improved clinical outcomes.
