Description

From Medinvents

The spirotome family represents a range of large core soft tissue biopsy needles and systems based on a very recently developed double rota-cutting technique. A cutting helix is turned onto the diseased area to locate and fix the specimen. Then a cutting cannula is rotated over the helix to free the specimen. The helix is withdrawn to harvest the tissue and the procedure can be finished or repeated as manytimes as needed.

The technique can be applied in various applications in the field of oncology, radiology, surgery, neurology, dermatology, gynecology etc. For each specific application, an adaptation of the basic technology is possible.
