Prostate Cancer Ultrasound

Advances in imaging are giving doctors the tools they need to produce a better quality of life for cancer patients.  

Dr. Sholz says prostate ultrasound are used to determine the presence or absence of a tumor and to enable biopsies to be directed at a specific spot on the gland.  

This cuts down on the number of biopsies a patient has to have which leads to less discomfort.  Biopsies in the past have been done randomly with more than a dozen needles.
