Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • * Disease: Prostate cancer
  • * Treatment site:
  • * Prostate or prostate and seminal vesicle
  • * No regional lymph node is involved
  • * Patient's body weight: Patient's body weight is less than 350 lbs to consider the total weight limit that the ProteusONE treatment table and the robotic arm can operate
  • * Treatment volume size: maximum size less than 15 x 15 cm in a cross-section and a thickness less than 20 cm to consider 2D transducer matrix size
  • * Provision to sign the consent form and understand the non-invasiveness of iRAI
  • * Patient agreement on tolerance on placing a water bag to acquire iRAI during treatment
  • * Treatment modality: Proton radiation therapy with UFHPTI's ProteusONE gantry using PBS
  • * A patient who would not be tolerable or will feel nervous about being touched on the skin with a water bag
  • * A patient with a significant medical implant or hardware in the treatment area
