So hard to study focal therapy

Thanks for the link - I am a patient at both Prisma & SHRS & sadly am not a HIFU candidate.

..and UR right - HIFU is limited by range (size) and calcification. TULSA seems less limited by size but calcification is still an issue but TULSA also adds the precision of doing this under an MRI.

Too bad it's not in this area (yet).

Tulsa has the same calcification limits so no use pursuing if you have calcification, most places are in FL or TX that do it anyway. Some of the others on the image/picture at top might be worth pursuing, but so hard to find places, just not sure how one even gets a perspective on most of those. Toxic direct injection for example, it is done in other cancers and it works but who does it? I have no idea.
