Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of HR-TRUS in detection of prostate cancer lesions relative to whole mount section after radical prostatectomy as the reference.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of HR-TRUS in detection of prostate cancer lesions relative to whole mount section after radical prostatectomy as the reference. The analysis will include the detection of all prostate cancer lesions as well as the detection of significant prostate cancer lesions. With this approach it is possible to calculate the sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, positive predictive value and overall accuracy of the correct detection of prostate cancer in the prostate. These results are of importance when the ExactVu ultrasound scanner is to be used later for prostate cancer diagnosis using targeted biopsies.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

HR-TRUS

HR-TRUS for the detection of prostate cancer in men scheduled for radical prostatectomy for localized prostate cancer

HR-TRUS

Intervention Type DEVICE

Medical procedures to be performed in the study consist of subject preparation and prostate imaging. The HR-TRUS exam will be done with a transrectal probe either the day before surgery, or in the OR right before surgery. The exam will be done in the same manner as during a regular transrectal ultrasound exam and no invasive procedures will be associated.
