In this segment, Dr. Mistry and Donna Lee respond to a listener who wants to know more about the Cyberknife treatment for prostate cancer. This listener’s PSA (prostate-specific antigen) levels are increasing and he wonders what treatments Dr. Mistry recommends for his cancer patients. Despite being one of the most common cancers affecting men, prostate cancer has a low mortality rate because it is highly treatable. Dr. Mistry explains the three main options he recommends for his patients: radical prostatectomy (removing the entire prostate), HIFU, and Cyberknife. While each has its merits, Dr. Mistry prefers to steer patients away from the Cyberknife, which uses fewer, more intense treatments than traditional radiation therapies but also has more side effects. If you or someone you love have questions regarding prostate cancer treatments or are seeking a second opinion, we would love to hear from you!
