Study Summary

In this project, we will integrate the Photoacoustic (PA) technology into a prostate biopsy procedure through a fine needle probe. The needle probe will be in the shape of a biopsy needle and compatible with the needle insertion mechanism in the transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) probe. When inserted into the prostate, the fine needle PA probe will assess the histological information in its surrounding tissue without any tissue extraction. The needle probe has been tested in prostate tissue samples and whole human prostates ex vivo.

Primary Outcome

The primary aim of this study is to demonstrate that our fine needle PA probe can acquire reliable measurements of prostate glands. This will be indicated by a signal-to-noise ratio of the measurements that is larger than one. We will calculate the signal to noise ratio of the signals as the peak-to-peak signal magnitude over the amplitude of the system background signal. The technical failure is that we will not be able to achieve measurements with signal-to-noise ratios larger than 1 in 10% o
