Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the substantial equivalence of the Ablatherm high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) as compared to cryotherapy for the treatment of low risk, localized prostate cancer.

Detailed description

Primary hypothesis of this clinical investigation is that HIFU with the Ablatherm Integrated Imaging is non-inferior to minimally invasive cryosurgery as an effective treatment method for low risk, localized prostate cancer.
