Article Synopsis
- Radical prostatectomy (RP) is a key surgical treatment for prostate cancer, but assessing surgical margins during the procedure is difficult and costly, making fluorescence confocal microscopy (FCM) a potential solution.
- The IP8-FLUORESCE study is a multicentre, prospective study that investigates the accuracy of digital FCM in identifying prostate cancer at surgical margins, comparing it to traditional histopathology methods.
- The study will involve 153 patients undergoing robot-assisted RP, using FCM on prostate specimens immediately after surgery, with results evaluated by blinded uro-pathologists for accuracy in detecting cancer presence at the margins.
