A prostate solution for malignant and benign tissue
The Transurethral Ultrasound Ablation (TULSA) Procedure is a incision free procedure that uses directional ultrasound to produce very high temperatures to ablate (destroy) targeted prostate tissue. The procedure is performed in a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) suite and uses the TULSA-PRO® system to ablate prostate tissue from the ‘inside-out’. The procedure combines real-time MRI with robotically-driven, directional thermal ultrasound to deliver predictable, physician-prescribed ablation of whole gland or partial prostate tissue.
The TULSA Procedure ablates diseased prostate tissue. Without the use of radiation, your physician can avoid important nerve bundles around your prostate, decreasing the risk of side effects. This incision-free and same-day outpatient procedure does not require repeat visits and empowers you to be a part of customizing your treatment plan based on your unique anatomy and disease.

“ After four years, erectile and urinary functional outcomes continue to contrast positively with radical prostatectomy and radiation therapy.”
