Research recommendations coming out of this guidance

  • Evidence on the safety of focal therapy using high-intensity focused ultrasound for localised prostate cancer is adequate, but evidence on its efficacy is limited. Therefore, this procedure should only be used with special arrangements for clinical governance, consent, and audit or research. Find out what special arrangements mean on the NICE interventional procedures guidance page.
