The Original Mammotome^® Breast Biopsy System

Mammotome^® ST was the first of four platforms, launching the legacy of confidence, accuracy, and trust. Mammotome offers various stereotactic probes (sizes and tip geometries) and accessories to manage difficult cases and minimize cancelled cases. Multiple sizes also provide customers with the option of performing minimally invasive vacuum-assisted biopsy in the majority of situations.

Features

Mutiple Probe Tips

Ensure maximum entry and oprimal access to chest wall lesions. The 8-gauge yields 1g of tisseus with 4 cores (porcine tissue samples using 8- and 11-gauge probe tips.

Variable Aperture Sleeve

Enables the biopsy of thin breasts and superficial lesions.

8G Probe Tip

Bladed tip facilitates insertion through dense tissue: 1 gram of tissue in 4 cores; tissue architecure is preserved; take a sample/see a sample.

11G Probe Tip

Facilitates stroke margin management.

Designed to maximize speed and ease-of-use, the Mammotome^® EX platform brings the efficiency and accuracy of the Mammotome^® Biopsy System to the ultrasound suite. Mammotome^® EX has a high patient satisfaction rate. In fact, 99% of patients say they would tell other women about this procedure. Clinicians want to use Mammotome^® EX because it is easy to set-up, easy-to-use, and provides easy access to core specimens. It also allows you to watch in real-time as you remove tissue from the breast. Mammotome^® EX enhances your ability to:

• Provide proper staging for malignant lesions
• Reduce the risk of underestimation for indeterminate lesions
• Manage benign disease (Research shows that 25% of women want benign lesions removed)
• Increase diagnostic confidence – especially for sizes 1cm or smaller
