Transurethral ultrasound ablation MRI

Transurethral ultrasound ablation may offer distinct advantages over alternative treatment options for prostate cancer. Xioasong Meng and Dr. Aditya Bagrodia team up with radiologist Dr. Daniel Costa to explain how to establish a TULSA program for prostate cancer treatment.

Tulsa procedure technique device placement diagram

The TULSA procedure involves several technical steps, including imaging, device placement, ablation control, and real-time monitoring. Learn how to successfully treat prostate cancer with the TULSA procedure, including step-by-step guidance on technical steps and follow-up care.

TULSA prostate treatment device

Proper patient selection and preparation are crucial for success with TULSA prostate treatment. Our urology and radiology panel explain TULSA patient selection, absolute and relative contraindications to TULSA, how to prep patients for TULSA prostate treatment, potential side effects of TULSA, and expected outcomes.

Cystoscopic Image of Bladder cancer

BCG-unresponsive bladder cancer has distinct criteria for diagnosis and management. Official FDA diagnosis requires the development or recurrence of a high-grade bladder tumor after a patient has received adequate BCG therapy. Treatment duration varies based on whether an induction or maintenance course is indicated.

Histology of high grade bladder cancer

The management of high-grade BCG-unresponsive bladder cancer begins with the establishment of cytology and, based on the patient profile, is followed by either TURBT or total cystectomy. Alternative treatments are available, but ongoing research continues to explore other options.

Doctor holding cystoscope for TURBT procedure

Transurethral resections of bladder tumor (TURBT) is a common procedure that is used to treat bladder cancer. Urologic Oncologist Dr. Sam Chang shares his approach to successful bladder cancer resection with TURBT, covering his technique before, during, and after the TURBT procedure.

Doctor demonstrating prostate anatomy for potential radiotherapy complications

Urologists commonly utilize radiotherapy in the treatment of prostate cancer, but like most treatment modalities, it is not without its complications. Learn more about specific complications and the role of patient-specific and prostate-specific factors in determining candidacy for treatment. 

Male patient undergoing external radiation therapy

Internal radiation therapy and external radiation therapy are often used by Urologists in the treatment of prostate cancer. Understanding the differences between the two forms of radiation is pertinent for deciding the patient's treatment plan.
