Official title
Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse (ARFI) Imaging for Targeted Prostate Biopsy
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new ultrasound technique. This technique may provide additional and improved information about the stiffness and sizes of the internal structures of your prostate in order to improve the guidance for a targeted biopsy. The investigational, custom-designed probe and needle guide will be used to produce images of your prostate and provide guidance for up to 4 additional biopsy samples (cores) prior to a standard magnetic resonance (MR) ultrasound fusion biopsy procedure. Above the time required for the MR ultrasound fusion biopsy, this study will take up to 30 additional minutes of time for collection of the investigational device guided collection of biopsy samples Risks of participation include increased time under anesthesia (to collect additional biopsies) and slight heating of tissue.
