CIVCO’s newest needle guidance system for Siemens, the 17L5 HD, is an ergonomic multi-angle system designed to work in conjunction with biopsy software on the Siemens ACUSON Sequoia ultrasound platform to provide detailed imaging of small parts, breast and subtle pathologies.
The system utilizes two parts; a custom reusable biopsy bracket and a disposable snap-on needle guide. Together, these tools offer physicians reduced technique variability, providing a shorter learning curve and reduced procedure time. The system is designed to increase the productivity of ultrasound-guided procedures, including tissue biopsy, fluid aspirations and catheter placement.
