Targeted MRI/Ultrasound Fusion biopsies are one of the latest technologies available in the detection and management of prostate cancer. Palm Beach Gardens Medical Center is proud to offer this new standard of care.

Historically, finding the exact location of cancer in a prostate gland has been a challenge. Conventional TRUS prostate biopsy techniques are referred to as “blind” biopsies since physicians typically cannot easily view the specific location of any abnormal tissue. Now, using the Artemis 3D imaging and navigation system, physicians are able to better identify and more accurately biopsy suspicious prostate cancer areas.
 
The MRI/Ultrasound Fusion (or MR/US Fusion) targeted biopsy procedure starts by using pre-exam MRI prostate images. These images are then fused with real-time ultrasound images to create a detailed 3D high-definition map of the prostate. This allows the physician to accurately target any visible lesions during the biopsy.
 
Patients recommended for this procedure are men who, typically, have elevated and/or rising prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels or those with a clinical concern for prostate cancer.

Tenet Florida Physician Services (TFPS) congratulates Fernando Bayron, M.D., FACS, for recently completing his 2,000 robotic surgery case, an exemplary feat in general surgery care. Dr. Bayron performs robotic-assisted abdominal procedures using the da Vinci XI Surgical System by Intuitive at Florida Medical Center. In addition, Dr. Bayron is a proctor for surgeons training on the da Vinci Surgical System, and Florida Medical Center is an Intuitive approved epicenter visit site.
 
“The robotically assisted surgical system is an instrument we use to perform general surgery cases and also a 3D computer interface console between the surgeon and patient. Robotic surgery technology helps to correct any human limitations in regards to movement and visualization including an augmented reality where contrast, colors and organs are easier to conceptualize,” said Dr. Bayron.
 
Dr. Bayron performs numerous general surgery procedures robotically with the da Vinci XI Surgical System including inguinal and ventral hernia repairs, gallbladder surgery, reflux surgery and colon resection surgery. Additionally, Dr. Bayron uses the robotic surgical system for gastric sleeve, gastric bypass and revisional bariatric surgery procedures.
