We present one case of nanoparticle directed ablation and two cases of cryoablation to focally treat prostate tumors. METHODS: Three patients underwent MRI/Ultrasound fusion transperineal prostate biopsies to confirm low to intermediate risk prostate cancer prior to treatment. The MRI lesions correlated with the biopsy proven disease, and no prostate cancer was present on systematic biopsies using the modified Barzel template. Pelvic MRI segmentation was performed with DynaCAD 5.0 workstation. The MRI lesion including a 6-10 mm margin, prostate, bladder, urethra, urethral sphincter, rectum, and pubic bone were segmented. MRI/Ultrasound fusion was performed with the novel Philips UroNav 4.0 system. Lesions were treated with focal nanoparticle ablation or focal cryoablation. RESULTS: A 69-year-old male with a 10mm lesion in the right mid gland posterior medial peripheral zone was positive for Gleason GG3 cancer and was treated with focal nanoparticle ablation. The UroNav 4.0 system reported 100% ablation of the segmented tumor and 94% of the 6-10 mm margin at the end of the case. A 68-year-old male with a 13mm lesion in the left anterior fibromuscular stroma apex positive for Gleason GG2 cancer and a 71-year-old male with a 16mm lesion in the right peripheral zone posterior lateral positive for Gleason GG1 cancer, were treated with focal cryoablation. The UroNav 4.0 system reported 100% ablation of the segmented tumor and 82% of the 6-10mm margin at the end of the case for the left anterior fibromuscular stroma apex lesion. CONCLUSIONS: Visualization of the prostate tumor(s), surrounding critical structures, and pelvis in 3 dimensions, along with the anticipated ablation zone, is one of the challenges of pelvic surgery and percutaneous ablation. The DynaCAD 5.0 Urology system can create anauto-segmented 3D rendering of critical structures and the tumor(s), as well as visualization and quantification of the anticipated ablation coverage, to facilitate preoperative planning of needle placement. Ultimately, this MRI/Ultrasound fusion technology combined with 3D mapping holds significant potential and will be utilized for new applications in the future.
