* It is a minimally invasive MRI-guided procedure that destroys cancerous tissue while minimizing side effects.
* Having completed over 200 procedures, he has performed more TULSA procedures as an independent urologist, in the absence of a radiologist, than any other urologist in the world.
As men and their loved ones explore treatment options for prostate cancer, it’s encouraging to know that ongoing innovation is shaping the management of this condition as technology advances.
Today, we have the privilege of speaking with Dr. Mark Hong, a pioneer of an advanced treatment for men with prostate cancer and/or BPH, known as Transurethral Ultrasound Ablation, or TULSA. It is a minimally invasive MRI-guided procedure that destroys cancerous tissue while minimizing side effects.
Dr. Hong is a board-certified urologist at Integrative Urology in Phoenix, Arizona, and a pioneer of MRI-guided TULSA-PRO incision-free surgery for prostate cancer. He completed his urology residency at Harvard Medical Center and earned selection as a national CAPTURE Scholar in prostate cancer. That allowed him to lead projects alongside world-leading scientists from the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and the University of California, San Francisco. He also completed a fellowship in robotic and minimally invasive surgery at George Washington University in Washington, DC. He has published in almost every major international urology journal, having authored publications on topics ranging from prostate cancer detection to healthcare policy.
Dr. Hong joins us today to share more about TULSA-PRO for men with prostate cancer. Having completed over 200 procedures, he has performed more TULSA procedures as an independent urologist, in the absence of a radiologist, than any other urologist in the world. Stay tuned for more!
