Original: Outer Banks Health introduces aquablation therapy, a robot-assisted option for treating enlarged prostate
Outer Banks Health has introduced aquablation therapy, a robot-assisted treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia, the enlargement of the prostate common in older men. The procedure combines ultrasound imaging with a robotic waterjet to remove prostate tissue while aiming to preserve sexual and urinary function. The hospital system says the option expands minimally invasive urological care for patients in the Outer Banks region of North Carolina.
