    摘要: Prostate probe systems are disclosed for assessing one or both of BPH or prostate cancer. The prostate probe systems comprise either a force or pressure sensor mounted on or in a rectally insertable probe or a temperature sensor mounted on or in a rectally insertable probe, or both. Also disclosed are probe systems for evaluating a condition of a prostate gland. Finally, force or hardness mapping devices are disclosed for palpation-examination of patient anatomical tissues for abnormalities or assessing states of firmness.

    摘要: A gel-like material is provided, the gel-like material having an on-demand state-change capability, whether the on-demand change is to an initial state, a final state or both, at least some of the gel present or delivered undergoing the change. Alternatively, the gel-like material may have a spatially and/or temporally selective state-change, whether on-demand change is to an initial state, a final state or both, at least some of the gel present or delivered undergoing the change. Or, the gel-like material may selectively change state due to gel contacting diseased tissue having a natural thermal or compositional contrast or artificially induced thermal or compositional contrast capable of causing state-change via a state-change parameter, independent of an on-demand nature or a spatial/temporal selective nature.
