Book Description

Publication Date: March 1, 2006

At Last -- A Groundbreaking Prostate Cancer Cure! American men dread prostate cancer, with good reason. It's the most prominent cancer in males, striking nearly 240,000 times annually and killing 29,000. In his new book, “A Breakthrough in Prostate Cancer Treatment," Dr. Koutrouvelis discusses his innovative prostate cancer treatment and gives new hope to thousands of men with the disease. Dr. Koutrouvelis has treated more than 1,000 patients worldwide using 3-D stereotaxis brachytherapy. This CT-guided technique precisely places radioactive "seeds" inside the prostate tumor and kills it while protecting the adjacent organs. A one-time treatment takes approximately one hour and the patient returns home the same day.
