Treatment overview

Enlarged prostate (BPH) care at EVU begins with symptom scoring, uroflow testing and imaging, then moves to the least invasive option that fits the prostate anatomy — medication, Rezum or iTind water-vapor and implant therapies, UroLift, or Aquablation for larger glands. Prostate cancer patients are staged with MRI-fusion biopsy before choosing focal TULSA-PRO ablation, robotic prostatectomy or active surveillance.
