BACKGROUND The Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)‐guided focal laser therapy has
shown early promise in Phase 1 trial treating low/intermediate‐risk localized prostate cancer …

Photothermal therapy (PTT) is enhanced by the use of nanoparticles with a large optical
absorption at the treatment wavelength. However, this comes at the cost of higher light …

Current challenges and innovations in prostate cancer management concern the
development of focal therapies that allow the treatment of only the cancer areas sparing the …

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to review the roles that MRI is expected to play in
emerging minimally invasive focal ablative therapies for prostate cancer. CONCLUSION …

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to evaluate MRI-guided therapies and to
investigate their feasibility for focal therapy in prostate cancer patients. Relevant articles …

Purpose: To demonstrate the capabilities of a new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐
guided system for delivering needles to the prostate for focal therapy. Included is a …

Significance: Our work demonstrates in preclinical models that continuous-wave transrectal
diffuse optical tomography (TRDOT) can be used to accurately monitor photothermal therapy …
