Early Detection and Diagnosis
Early detection of prostate cancer significantly improves treatment success rates. At the Prostate Cancer Institute of Nevada, we emphasize the importance of regular screenings, particularly for men over 50 or those with a family history of prostate cancer. Our diagnostic services include PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) testing, digital rectal exams (DRE), and advanced imaging techniques like MRI and ultrasound. If a biopsy is required, we utilize minimally invasive procedures to ensure accurate diagnosis with minimal discomfort.
Personalized Treatment Plans
Every case of prostate cancer is unique, requiring a personalized approach to treatment. At the Prostate Cancer Institute of Nevada, we develop customized treatment plans based on the stage of cancer, the patient’s overall health, and personal preferences. Our multidisciplinary team of oncologists, urologists, and radiation therapists collaborate to create the most effective treatment strategy for each patient.
Brachytherapy for Prostate Cancer at Prostate Cancer Institute of Nevada
Brachytherapy is a highly effective treatment option for prostate cancer, offering precise targeting of cancer cells while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. At the Prostate Cancer Institute of Nevada, we specialize in delivering advanced brachytherapy as part of our comprehensive prostate cancer treatment program.
Brachytherapy, also known as internal radiation therapy, involves placing radioactive seeds directly into or near the prostate gland. This targeted approach allows for higher doses of radiation to be delivered directly to the tumor with fewer side effects compared to external beam radiation therapy. The procedure is minimally invasive and typically performed on an outpatient basis, allowing patients to return home the same day.
Our team of experienced radiation oncologists and urologists collaborates to create personalized treatment plans that maximize the effectiveness of brachytherapy. We use advanced imaging technology to precisely guide the placement of the radioactive seeds, ensuring optimal treatment outcomes.
Brachytherapy is particularly effective for patients with localized prostate cancer and can be used alone or in combination with other treatments such as hormone therapy or external beam radiation. Patients often experience fewer side effects and a faster recovery compared to other treatment options.
