Electroporation Ablation Trial ( NEAT ) : a prospective development study investigating focal irreversible electroporation for localised prostate cancer

Purpose Irreversible electroporation (IRE) has attractive attributes for focal ablation, namely non-thermal effect, precise demarcation of treatment, and tissue-selectivity. We report on a prospective development study investigating focal IRE. Materials and Methods 20 men with the following characteristics were recruited: anterior MR-visible index lesion concordant with transperineal targeted and template prostate mapping biopsy, absence of clinically significant disease elsewhere (UCL definition 2), and PSA 更多
