Interventions

  • Fine Needle Photoacoustic Probe — DEVICE
    Fine Needle Photoacoustic Probe guided by the standard biopsy system without tissue core extraction

Study Details

In this project, we will integrate the Photoacoustic (PA) technology into a prostate biopsy procedure through a fine needle probe. The needle probe will be in the shape of a biopsy needle and compatible with the needle insertion mechanism in the transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) probe. When inserted into the prostate, the fine needle PA probe will assess the histological information in its surrounding tissue without any tissue extraction. The needle probe has been tested in prostate tissue samples and whole human prostates ex vivo.

Arms

  • Arm: Biopsy
    Patients will be identified once prostate biopsies have been scheduled. Once enrolled on trial, patients will undergo standard biopsy procedure as per clinical care. During this biopsy, research measurements will be completed using the fine needle photoacoustic probe.

Primary Outcome Measure

Demonstration of reliable measurements [ Time Frame: day 1 ]
