In this episode, Urology Times® Assistant Editor Janelle Hart spoke with Jennifer Linehan, MD. She discusses the role that high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) has played among other minimally invasive and robotic technologies to mitigate the side effects and complications of treatment for prostate cancer, compared toe other treatment options. Linehan is an associate professor of urology and urologic oncology at the John Wayne Cancer Institute in Santa Monica, California.
