Description

A groundbreaking trial in the UK is exploring a less invasive prostate cancer treatment, Aquablation, which uses a high-pressure water jet to remove cancerous tissue precisely, potentially reducing side effects like erectile dysfunction and urinary problems. Backed by the National Institute for Health and Care Research, this innovative approach is being tested on 280 patients globally, including 140 in the UK. The trial aims to improve treatment options and patient outcomes, especially as prostate cancer diagnoses have risen by nearly nine percent in England.
