The project in a nutshell
Testing whether using a new form of ultrasound to measure tissue
stiffness can be used to accurately show the location of prostate
cancer tumours and tell whether it's aggressive or not.
Why we funded it
Prostate biopsies, which are currently used to assess location
of prostate cancer could be guided by this type of ultrasound to
make the results more accurate and less invasive. This type of
imaging could also be used to help define risk.
