Cooled ThermoTherapy is a minimally-invasive non-surgical procedure for the treatment of an enlarged prostate; also know as Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) The urologist, assisted by a specially trained technologist, performs the treatment using a specially designed catheter that directs heat deep into the prostate to safely destroy the enlarged tissue thus reducing the pressure being placed on the urethra. During treatment, cool water is circulated through a catheter, drawing heat away from the delicate surface of the urethra, protecting it from damage and minimizing patient discomfort. In some cases Cooled Thermo Therapy may take less than 30 minutes. Patients can go home shortly after treatment. Most men resume their normal routine within days following Cooled Thermo Therapy treatment. |
