Tissue markers

Markers for predictable placement and rapid expansion

Mammotome^® offers a family of marker products for vacuum-assisted and core needle biopsy procedures, visible under x-ray, ultrasound and MRI imaging modalities, to radiographically mark the biopsy site.

• Simple to use delivery systems
• Two different shapes for multi-site biopsies
• Visibility under x-ray, ultrasound and MRI

MammoMARK™

MammoMARK™ offers compatibility with most breast biopsy systems while providing visibility under all imaging modalities.

• Single, self-expanding collagen plug expands up to 300% after deployment to fill the biopsy cavity
• Embedded titanium clip remains centrally located in the biopsy site after the collagen resorbs
• Multiple marker shapes for multiple site placement

CorMARK™

CorMARK™ is designed to consistently mark biopsy sites following a 14-gauge core needle biopsy. CorMARK™ can be inserted into the breast directly or used with a 13-gauge coaxial introducer.

• Delivers predictable placement in the biopsy cavity
• Single, self-expanding collagen plug expands up to 300% after deployment to fill the biopsy cavity
• Purified collagen has been used for more than 25 years as an implant for hemostasis, wound healing and cosmesis

The consistently-visible CorMARK™ single collagen plug:

• Provides a large surface area for ultrasound wave reflection and casts a highly visible acoustic shadow
• Is echogenic to allow real-time imaging under ultrasound, both for placement and follow-up for a few weeks
• Designed to be more reliable than multiple pledgets that can be displaced and difficult to localize under ultrasound

Embedded titanium clip:

• Offers long-term visibility after collagen resorbs
• Visible under x-ray and MRI
• Identifies critical locations for follow-up in neoadjuvant chemotherapy cases

MicroMARK®

MicroMARK^® tissue markers are for use with 8- and 11-gauge Mammotome probes.

• Marks the site by attaching to soft tissue
• Stainless steel marker
