Needle
22G / 0.7 mm, 100% Nitinol
A 100% Nitinol fine needle biopsy system that carries the TopGain three-point crown cut on a nitinol shaft, for work at difficult access angles.
In which cases?
Pancreatic head and uncinate lesions reached with the scope in a tight angle.
Hard or fibrotic lesions where the needle has to hold its line through the wall.
Sessions with repeated passes, where the needle has to return to its form each time.
What makes it different?
100% nitinol shaft with a shape memory effect; the manufacturer states the needle returns to its form after the first puncture and goes to the target on repeated passes.
The same three-point crown cut as the steel TopGain.
22G, 0.7 mm, needle length adjustment 0 to 8.5 cm, sheath 1.8 mm and 2.7 mm.
Tip stabilizer version for 3.2 to 3.8 mm working channels.
