Novel Automated 3D Surgical Planning Tool and MRI/Ultrasound Fusion Technology to Perform Nanoparticle Ablation and Cryoablation of the Prostate for Focal Therapy.

Although MRI/Ultrasound fusion has been primarily used to assist in the diagnosis of prostate cancer, this technology can also be used to focally treat localized prostate cancer. We present one case of nanoparticle directed ablation and two cases of cryoablation to focally treat prostate tumors.
