Device for prostate palpation

A device for prostate palpation, comprising:

• a handle for handling of said device;
• and
• a probe comprising:
• (a) concentric inner and an external indenters of different heights adapted to apply pressure to a scanning point, said indenters inserted into and positioned proximally to a distal end of a scanning rod, said inner indenter passing inside of and being higher than said external indenter, said inner indenter being linked to a left internal pressure sensor by a cylinder and said external indenter being linked to an inner internal pressure sensor by a lever which is integrated with said external indenter, wherein said left internal pressure sensor receives a first force directly from said inner indenter, said inner internal pressure sensor receives a second force from said external indenter indirectly by means of a central support, and wherein said concentric inner and external indenters, and said inner and left internal pressure sensors are closed into said distal end of said scanning rod by a cap;
• (b) an ultrasonic imaging system located inside said scanning rod that allows visualization of location of said left and inner internal pressure sensors and prostate anatomy for correct positioning of said left and internal pressure sensors in and adjacent to a cancerous area so that measurements are valid;
• and
• (c) control electronics integrated with said handle for left and inner internal pressure sensors and said ultrasonic imaging system with means of connection to external devices for analysis and/or control.
