Reusable Bracket & Disposable Endocavity Needle Guides

Reusable Endocavity Guides

• Allows needle insertion parallel to the imaging plane, promoting needle visibility during transvaginal or transrectal ultrasound-guided procedures. ⁷
• Ensures intracavity procedures can be performed quickly and inexpensively. ²
• Aids in accurate sampling during targeted prostate biopsy. ⁵
• Enables transvaginal biopsies of pelvic tumors for diagnostic purposes. ⁷
• Enables accurate and safe transvaginal ultrasound-guided FNA to assist in diagnosis and management of small, deep pelvic lesions. ⁶
• Allows accurate (transvaginal) needle or catheter placement.²
• Enables minimally invasive drain placement in the management of tubo-ovarian abscesses. ³
• Transvaginal ultrasound-guided aspiration has a very high success rate as a first line procedure.⁴
