UCSF experts present four major approaches to managing prostate cancer, each tailored to disease risk and patient needs. Dr. Peter Carroll explains how active surveillance uses MRI, PSA, and genomic testing to safely delay treatment in low-risk cases while preserving quality of life. Dr. Samuel Washington details prostatectomy, highlighting robotic-assisted surgery’s precision and its impact on recovery, fertility, and sexual function. Dr. Julian Hong outlines radiation therapy options like SBRT and brachytherapy, emphasizing targeted delivery to limit side effects and the importance of ongoing follow-up. Dr. Hao Nguyen introduces focal therapy, which treats only the tumor using techniques like cryotherapy or high-intensity ultrasound, helping patients avoid surgery or radiation while maintaining function and quality of life.
