NCT ID NCT04808427
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 05, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study tests a procedure called TULSA that uses MRI images to guide high-energy ultrasound waves to destroy prostate cancer tumors. About 21 adults with early-stage prostate cancer that shows up on MRI will receive this heat-based treatment. The goal is to see if the approach is safe and feasible, with follow-up over three years to monitor results.
