Histotripsy Focal Ablation of Implanted Prostate Tumor in an ACE-1 Canine Cancer Model

Abstract

This study shows the feasibility of histotripsy destruction of prostate tumors in a canine ACE-1 model. It suggests a potential role for histotripsy based focal therapy for prostate cancer. Further studies are needed to better characterize the effects of histotripsy on malignant tissues.
