Published research data shows ProstRcision outcomes are equivalent compared to radical prostatectomy (surgery) studies at two of the most prestigious cancer institutions in the country (see chart).
Outcomes from our patients treated over the past 35+ years have been tracked in our database. We use this information to give a man his personal Individual Cure Rate probability and side effects probabilities.
