Featured Speakers
Every month, experts in prostate cancer share their time and expertise with us in online meetings that are intended for anyone who wants to learn more about prostate cancer: patients, partners, families, friends, and their medical teams. Speakers cover a wide range of prostate cancer topics, from testing and diagnosis to advances in treatment and living with your disease. Every live presentation is followed by Q&A.
Presentations are usually on the fourth Thursday of the month, with occasional "fireside chats" of about 20 minutes at the beginning of Tuesday support group meetings.
Most presentations are recorded and can be found in the Presentations Library.

When You Can See More, You Can Do More - Micro-Ultrasound for Prostate Cancer Imaging
Micro-Ultrasound is a new imaging technology specifically designed for the Prostate. This technology combines the real-time imaging of ultrasound with a sensitivity previously only possible using MRI, and opens up new possibilities for Prostate Cancer diagnosis and treatment. We will review the technology, along with recent clinical data, and how it is changing practice.
