Assessment of Supersonic Imagine Aixplorer for the Detection and Localisation of Prostate Cancer Foci

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Cancer of Prostate
• Interventions: Other: Elastography

• Registration Number: NCT01639859
• Lead Sponsor: Hospices Civils de Lyon

Brief Summary

The primary aim of the study is to assess the elasticity (Young's modulus) of cancerous tumor foci, of normal peripheral zone, and of normal transition zone in the prostate. Images obtained with the Supersonic Imagine Aixplorer scanner prior to radical prostatectomy are compared to whole-mount histology.
