Clinical trials: Transrectal Ultrasound
Prostatic Neoplasms, Prostate Cancer
Multi-Center Trial of High-resolution Transrectal Ultrasound Versus Standard Low-resolution Transrectal Ultrasound for the Identification of Clinically Significant Prostate Cancer
This trial uses a ultra high-resolution ultrasound system and specialized transducer, intended for use in prostate imaging. The system's image resolution is significantly better than the standard of care, due to its higher…
