Ep.22: A New Approach to Treating Prostate Cancer: Robert Palmer’s Journey with Focused Ultrasound
In this episode of Curing with Sound, Robert Palmer shares his transformative experience with focused ultrasound for prostate cancer. Robert details his procedure, which, unlike traditional treatments, allowed him to avoid overnight hospitalization and return to normal activities within ten days. Now cancer-free, Robert is a passionate advocate for focused ultrasound technology and has spoken to U.S. policymakers about his experience.Key points from the conversation:
The TULSA-PRO procedure is an incision-free, outpatient treatment that uses MRI-guided focused ultrasound technology. Compared to traditional treatments, it requires only a brief recovery period and has minimal side effects.
The American Medical Association has issued three Category I CPT® codes for the TULSA-PRO device. The codes, which take effect on January 1, 2025, are used by insurance companies to reimburse medical procedures. This milestone marks a significant step toward making this treatment more accessible to patients.
Palmer's experience has led him to become a champion for focused ultrasound technology, participating in Capitol Hill advocacy work and helping to educate other men about this minimally invasive treatment option.
