Brief Summary: The objective of the FOCUS-Boost project is to implant for the first time with a 3D ultrasound image fusion registration system (3D echo) implant of iodine 125 with precision in a target volume determined by positive biopsies.
Detailed Description: The interstitial brachytherapy procedure for the prostate does not allow for a robust focal treatment to accurately deliver additional dose to the tumour volume. FOCUS BOOST allows the precise implantation of 125 iodine implant with greater accuracy (using a 3D ultrasound image fusion registration system) in a target volume. For this purpose, positive biopsies, performed in this research protocol, will be used prior to surgery. Prostate brachytherapy will be optimised thanks to the TRINITY® system and its guidance quality, by increasing the dose of the intra-prostate tumour volume (BOOST) without increasing the total dose delivered to the prostate. Increasing the dose to the tumour target volume could improve disease control and decrease the risk of recurrence.
