Georgia Urology is proud to bring game-changing, minimally invasive technologies to men’s health care. These innovative treatments are designed to address low-grade prostate cancer, kidney stones, and enlarged prostate (BPH) without the need for traditional surgery, offering patients faster recovery, less discomfort, and better outcomes.
CVAC System – Gentle, Comprehensive Kidney Stone Removal
CVAC provides a precise and minimally invasive approach to kidney stone removal. Utilizing advanced suction and irrigation, this technology collects stone fragments during and after ureteroscopy with laser lithotripsy, enabling virtually complete stone clearance while minimizing trauma to the ureters and kidney, thereby allowing patients to recover comfortably and quickly.
NanoKnife – Targeted Therapy for Low-Grade Prostate Cancer
NanoKnife utilizes electrical pulses to target and destroy cancerous cells in the prostate, employing advanced technology known as electroporation. This minimally invasive option can treat some instances of low-grade prostate cancer while preserving surrounding healthy tissue, offering a promising option for men seeking treatment with fewer side effects.
Focal One HIFU – Robotic Precision for Low-Grade Prostate Cancer
Focal One HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) combines tried-and-true ultrasound energy and robotic guidance to deliver precise, non-invasive prostate cancer therapy. This targeted approach spares healthy tissue, allowing for effective treatment and improved quality of life.
Prostatic Artery Embolization (PAE) – Non-Surgical Relief for BPH
PAE is a non-surgical, non-thermal treatment that shrinks the prostate by up to 40% and has no reports of sexual dysfunction or urinary incontinence. It achieves this by reducing the prostatic blood supply using tiny microspheres to block the prostatic arteries. It provides significant relief from urinary symptoms caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) with minimal downtime and no incisions.
Prostate cancer, the second-leading cause of cancer death and the most common solid tumor cancer in men, is a serious concern that is still poorly understood by many patients. Starting at age 40, the rate of prostate cancer steadily increases. However, the dangers of prostate cancer frequently go unmentioned, and many men do not receive […]
By Charles Kaplan, M.D. How many times have we heard the men’s health clinic ads on the radio? They sound so appealing, often guaranteeing success on your first visit or your money back. So exactly what does all that mean? Let’s break it down: The doctors you see in many of these men’s health clinics […]
Millions of men in the United States have an enlarged prostate, a condition that becomes even more common with age. In fact, studies estimate about half of men over 50 years of age have an enlarged prostate, and that number soars to as high as 90 percent for men aged 80 years and older. Causes […]
