Image-Guided Prostate Cancer Treatments is a comprehensive
reference and practical guide on the technology and application of
ultrasound and MRI in the male pelvis, with special attention to
the prostate. The book is organized into three main sections, the
first of which is devoted to general aspects of imaging and
image-guided treatments.The second section provides a systematic
overview of the application of ultrasound and MRI to the diagnosis
and treatment of diseases of the lower urinary tract. Performance
of the ultrasound and MRI studies is explained, and the normal and
abnormal pathological anatomy is reviewed. Correlation with the
ultrasound in the same plane is provided to assist in understanding
the MRI sequences. Biopsy and interventional procedures,
ultrasound-MRI fusion techniques, and image-guided therapies,
including focused ultrasound, photodynamic therapy, microwave and
laser ablation, are all fully covered. The third section focuses on
securing treatment effectiveness and the use of follow-up imaging
to ensure therapeutic success and detect tumor recurrence at an
early stage, which is vital given that prompt focal treatment of
recurrence is very successful. Here, particular attention is paid
to the role of Doppler ultrasound and DCE-MRI technologies. This
book, containing a wealth of high-quality illustrations based on
high-end equipment, will acquaint beginners with the basics of
prostate ultrasound and MRI, while more advanced practitioners will
learn new skills, means of avoiding pitfalls, and ways of
effectively relating the imaging and image-guided treatments to the
clinical situation. The information provided will permit a tailored
approach in dealing with specific pathologic issues."
