Special camera to guide prostate cancer surgery
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study tests a special camera that helps surgeons see prostate cancer tissue more clearly during surgery. It may help make surgery more precise, which could improve outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a prostate cancer diagnosis from a biopsy.
- Your prostate must be smaller than 100 cubic centimeters, as measured on an MRI.
- You need to be able to make your own decisions and understand the study.
- You must be willing to participate and follow the study steps.

This trial tests whether adding a 3D augmented-reality model to standard robot-assisted prostate surgery can help doctors remove the cancer while better preserving sexual function. It is for men whose MRI shows the cancer may have slightly spread outside the prostate.
This trial tests a fluorescent dye that helps surgeons see prostate cancer during surgery. It may help doctors remove cancer more completely.
This study tests whether a special microscope can help surgeons see cancer margins (edges) during prostate removal surgery to make sure all cancer is removed. It may help surgeons make real-time decisions about how much tissue to remove.
This study uses a special kind of MRI to better “map” prostate cancer inside the prostate. Researchers compare the MRI results with the detailed tissue exam after prostate surgery to see how accurate the imaging is.
This study tests a new microscope method to look at prostate biopsy samples during the procedure, which may help doctors find cancer more quickly and accurately. It is for people who have not had a prostate biopsy before.
This study tests a special camera that may help doctors aim radiation more precisely at bone tumors in people with prostate cancer. It could improve the accuracy of treatment while reducing harm to healthy tissue.
