Three interchangeable needles — the FNA, FNB, and FNF — allow for predictable biliary access, fine needle aspiration, fine needle biopsy, fiducial placement and improved procedural workflow in one procedure. 1-8
Successful management of non-resectable liver tumors is about more than what you remove — it’s about what you leave behind, too.
The Emprint™ ablation system supports your journey from careful planning to predictable success when treating small to medium sized liver malignancies alone or with surgery. It enables a minimally invasive procedure with:
This technology demonstrates controllable and
predictable ablation zones and single digit local recurrence
rates clinically.15,17-19
The Barrx™ radiofrequency ablation system includes technology for treating Barrett's esophagus.20
