The present invention is directed to a method of detecting prostatitis comprising obtaining an expressed prostatic secretion from a patient; contacting a device having diagnostic test reagents to the expressed prostatic secretion, the diagnostic test reagents reacting with the expressed prostatic secretion to produce a change in the device; reading the change in the device to produce a positive or negative experimental test result, wherein the experimental test result is positive when the experimental test result is pre-determined to correspond with a number above 10 for the number of white blood cell per high powered field and the experimental test result is negative when the experimental test result corresponds with a number of 10 or less for the number of white blood cell per high powered field; and determining presence of prostatitis with the positive experimental test result and the absence of prostatitis with the negative experimental test result. The present invention is also directed to a device for use in the inventive method. The device has two indicators, one for the presence of prostatitis and one for the absence of prostatitis.

Treatment Of Prostate Cancer Using Enhanced Energy Application (Eea) In High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (Hifu) Procedures
A method for HIFU treatment of localized prostate cancer in a patient includes identifying the cancer locations in a patient's prostate; visually segmenting the patient's prostate into areas for analysis and treatment, where the section including the area of most aggressive cancer is determined to be the primary area. The primary area is subjected to a first full HIFU treatment for a period intended to ablate the cancerous tumor. HIFU treatment is then stopped on the primary area and the primary area is allowed to rest while simultaneously subjecting the next contiguous area of the patient's prostate to a first HIFU treatment to ablate any additional areas of suspected cancer in the next contiguous area. HIFU treatment is then stopped in the contiguous area. The primary area is then subjected to a second full HIFU treatment for a period sufficient to ensure the complete ablation of the cancerous tumor. The method further includes repeating alternating full HIFU treatment processes on subsequent contiguous areas of the patient's prostate to ensure the complete ablation of any cancerous tumors in the patient's prostate. The entire process is completed under one treatment of anesthesia.
