eTRAX Needle Tip Tracking Guidance System - 14GA

Needle Tip Tracking

• Studies show the advantage of this needle guidance modality during needle intervention with a high technical success, high accuracy, short procedure time, low complication rate, and easy operability.¹
• Accurate Navigation - Clinical studies report a high level of accuracy and safety using eTRAX.^2,3
• Access to Difficult Anatomy - Evidence demonstrates eTRAX provides access to targets normally difficult to visualize under conventional ultrasound.^4,5
• Confident Outcomes - Reported patient and procedure outcomes demonstrate the clinical utility of eTRAX in a range of procedures.²
