95: Initial Experience with the In-Office Promaxo MRI System: Identifying and Targeting Prostate Cancer
Within the ever-evolving landscape of medical technology, breakthrough innovations continuously emerge to revolutionize how urologists approach the detection and treatment of prostate cancer.
In this episode, we dive into Dr. Pohlman’s first-hand encounter with the state-of-the-art Promaxo MRI system that has transformed his practice since June.
On the patient side, we unravel the inner workings of the Promaxo MRI technology, explaining how the system benefits men going through a prostate biopsy. For urologists listening, we explore the practicalities of how Dr. Pohlman integrated the Promaxo MRI system into an office setting, covering the minimal facility prerequisites and describing how the system synced with the general workflow of his clinic. We also get into how Dr. Pohlman is gearing up to begin using the Promaxo MRI system for performing in-office targeted focal ablation for prostate cancer and we also share crucial considerations for urologists to bear in mind when performing low-field MRIs on patients with implants.
Stay tuned for a transformative journey through the world of cutting-edge medical technology!
