The Gray Area of Favorable Intermediate Risk 3+4=7

Excellent point about focal therapies as 3+4=7 with certain types of lesions tend to make the best candidates. My surgeon does cryotherapy and we discussed it as an option. And it's covered by insurance. He told me that the effectiveness is less than surgery or radiation and it doesn't remove future potential lesions. But options for additional treatment remain.
Did you choose a focal therapy? Which?

I’m still gathering info and opinions. As of today I’m thinking TULSA-PRO, although I like the precision of Focal Laser Therapy (FLA) but it hard to find info. FLA is approved and used in brain surgery so it’s not untested it seems. HIFU is available locally but I think the real-time MRI guidance of TULSA-PRO seems better to me. All the best.
