Hi Colleen,

I see that your reply is over a year ago so I wonder if your reply would be different now? I understand that the FDA cleared the Emsella chair and that it recently (Jan,/2023) was cleared by Medicare for approval. Does that mean
Mayo may have the equipment or be getting it? I am a current patient. Thank you.

Hi @meda, a search on Google Scholar doesn't show any new information that I could see:
https://scholar.google.ca/scholar?q=Magnetic+Stimulation+Therapy+for+Urinary+Incontinence&hl=en&as_sdt=0&as_vis=1&oi=scholart
The clinical trial being conducted by William Beaumont Hospitals cited above isn't scheduled to be complete until 2025.

I don't know if Mayo Clinic offers this treatment for urinary incontinence for men with prostate cancer. I'd be interested what your urologist would know about its efficacy.
