Transrectal Photoacoustic Imaging of the Prostate

Not Recruiting

Trial ID: NCT02365883

Age - 18 Years-80 Years Condition - Prostate Cancer, Prostate - Localized Gender - Male Accepting Healthy Volunteers - No

Purpose

The purpose of this study is to image human prostate tissue using a new transrectal photoacoustic imaging probe and correlate this with ultrasound and MRI imaging performed once the specimen has been surgically removed. We hope to see what we can visualize with our device as this has never been done before. Eventually, we hope to use a similar device to image the prostate in men being seen by their doctor for prostate cancer.
