Evaluation Ultrasound Elasticity/Tissue Strain-Hardening Imaging for Prostate Cancer Patients Undergoing Radical Prostatectomy

NCT00824902 · Status: TERMINATED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 13

Last updated 2015-01-09

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The primary objective is to perform a pilot trial evaluation of a novel prostate ultrasound imaging software utilizing tissue elasticity measurements to identify tumor foci among men who will undergo radical prostatectomy for localized prostate cancer.

As a secondary objective, investigators will compare elasticity measured tumor foci volume to the measured volume from radical prostatectomy pathologic examination.
