Summary
This study tested a new way to treat low-risk prostate cancer using MRI-guided laser ablation. Doctors used heat from a laser to destroy cancer cells while monitoring the temperature in real time. Seven men with early-stage prostate cancer took part. The goal was to see if the procedure is safe and effective, with fewer side effects like incontinence or impotence.
