Prostate –C.M.P.
Avoiding Prostate Biopsies
What is a Prostate C.M.P.
The Prostate – C.M.P.
is the most comprehensive and sensitive exam to evaluate the
prostate as it detects 5 times as many pathologies as
conventional exams and it does it for each of the procedures
involved without pain or suffering.
What are the objectives?
1.
Avoids prostate biopsy
2.
Detects what raises the PSA (prostate antigen)
3.
Determines what is causing the symptoms attributed to the
prostate
4.
Determines what is causing the other symptoms in the patient
5.
Diagnosis other diseases in the body
What is included in the Prostate C.M.P.
1.
A comprehensive and detailed clinical history
2.
Nineteen (19) color ultrasound images, each with a
sensitivity of 99.8%. (Conventional exams only have a
sensitivity of 17%): eyes, parotids, sublingual, submaxilar,
carotids, jugular, thyroid, abdominal wall, penis, scrotum
and testicles, heart, thorax, liver, gall bladder, pancreas,
spleen, stomach, duodenum, aorta, lower thorax, kidneys,
suprarenal, intestine, urethras, bladder and sperm ducts.
3.
Complete physical exam: height, weight, blood pressure and
pulse (multiple readings) skin, nails, hair, ears, nostrils,
sinus cavities, pharynx, eyes, respiratory , circulatory,
digestive, urinary, reproductive, endocrinological, nervous
and locomotive systems
4.
Integration of all the findings
5.
C.A.D. (computer aided diagnosis)
6.
Description of the findings
7.
Color images and gray tone images on CD
8.
Diagnosis
9.
List of causes for the elevated PSA and/or the symptoms
related to the prostate and the urogenital system in general
10.
Prescription
11.
Recommendations
12.
Diet, if necessary
13.
During the delivery of the results (usually one work day
later) the results are explained and any questions of the
patient are answered
14.
Three medical controls are carried out in person, by email,
or by telephone in the following three months,
What is necessary?
1.
To be in Bogotá the night before the exam and stay
preferably one more night in Bogotá in case anything
additional is necessary. It is indispensable a night of
rest in Bogotá as trips affect the vital signs
2.
A simple preparation depending on the time of the
appointment
3.
Setting up an appointment in advance
Advantages
Detects what raises the PSA
Avoids prostate biopsy and the spreading of metastasis which
is a real danger with biopsies
Detects five times as many diseases in each of the
procedures
No hospitalization is necessary:
3 hours are enough
It is fast: the results are available in one day
It is painless: there are no needles or incisions
It is extremely sensitive:
in 1000 patients it detects important pathologies in 99.8%
of the cases
thanks to the color ultrasound and the computer aided
diagnosis. This means that it detects 5 times as many
diseases as other exams.
Preparation is very simple and depends on the time of the
appointment
It does not incapacity you. Normal activities can be resumed
immediately after the exam.
It is fast:
3 hours are normally enough
It is safe:
there is not radiation. No contrast mediums, no chance of
transmission of infection.
It avoids unnecessary surgeries and confirms when surgery is
really necessary
It avoids infertility problems caused by unnecessary and
extreme processes in the prostate.
It avoids impotence caused by extreme and unnecessary
processes in the prostate.
It avoids bladder and fecal control problems caused by
unnecessary surgery in the prostate.
Avoids painful, dangerous and expensive exams
such as biopsies, urographies, cystoscopies, etc.
Includes recommended treatment.
We recommend the course of action to take and prescribe the
treatment which is not highly specialized.
The biggest part of our diagnosis is in color.
We observe in ultrasound the tumors, the kidney stones, gall
stones, cysts, etc., while conventional exams only “presume”
these illnesses.
The report in images on CD remains intact for more than 200
years. It can be sent by email, copied any number of times
and kept in your computer. The report on CD is more
practical, private and safer to store. The space that it
occupies is minimal and can be transferred to your computer.
REASONS TO AVOID PROSTATE BIOPSY:
-
It is dangerous, painful, incapacitating, with serious
consequences and can cause metastasis, septicemia, and
even death
-
The chance of its detecting cancer in minimal as the
tissue sample obtained by the needles is less than 1% of
the average prostate in the patients in which it is
taken
-
If cancer is detected, the possibility of metastasis
increases considerably because of :
-
The inflammatory reaction produced by the needles
-
The possibility of perforating the capsule of the
tumor causing metastasis
THE BIOPSY IS NOT INDISPENSABLE AND MUCH LESS IS IT URGENT

Preparation
for the Prostate C.M.P.
1.
Be in Bogotá from the night before the exam
2.
Eat a bland diet the night before the exam
3.
The day of the exam, not consume anything except
for a liter of water which should be drunk 10

5.
Have a travad (or similar) intrarectal enema
(not oral) of 1 liter 3 hours before the
appointment, holding it 15 minutes before
releasing.
6.
Immediately after releasing the enema a thorough
cleaning of the anus with abundant soap and
water, preferably showering. If evacuation is
repeated, a cleaning of the anus with soap and
water should be repeated. There should be no
remains of fecal material or toilet paper.
7.

remove them briefly.
