MRI-guided biopsy procedures, particularly those involving soft tissue targets like the liver and kidney, present unique challenges. Needle trajectory must be exact. Visibility must be uncompromised. And above all, patient safety must be maintained throughout. That’s where Imaging Solutions’ biopsy tools, including the Ultralight Semiautomatic Biopsy Needle and Interventional Cannulas, come into their own.
Developed specifically for use in the MRI environment, these tools are trusted by medical imaging professionals who demand accuracy, MRI safety, and dependable performance – without compromise.
Why These Tools Matter for MRI-Guided Biopsies
MRI provides superior soft tissue contrast, making it the preferred modality for targeting lesions in organs such as the liver and kidney. However, not all biopsy instruments are compatible with the MRI suite. Conventional tools may introduce image artefacts or distortions, compromising both targeting accuracy and diagnostic quality.
Imaging Solutions’ MRI biopsy tools are designed to overcome these challenges:
- MRI Compatibility: Both the biopsy needle and cannula are constructed from non-ferromagnetic, MR-safe materials — making them suitable for use in high-field MRI environments.
- Low Artifact Profile: Designed to minimise image distortion, these instruments help maintain a clear visual of the needle path and target area throughout the procedure.
- Reliable Mechanics: The Ultralight Semiautomatic Biopsy Needle delivers the sharpness and rigidity needed for precise lesion access, while the Interventional Cannulas are designed for stable needle guidance and depth control.
- Versatility Across Cases: Available in a range of lengths and gauges to support liver, renal, and soft tissue biopsies.
Clinical Applications
These MRI-compatible tools are ideal for:
- Percutaneous MRI-guided liver biopsies
- MRI-guided kidney/renal biopsies
- Soft tissue lesion sampling in a range of interventional radiology settings
- Procedures requiring minimal image disruption and precise needle placement
As minimally invasive and image-guided procedures become increasingly common, access to tools that integrate seamlessly with your MRI suite is more important than ever.
Supporting Better Outcomes
The benefits of MRI guidance are clear: no ionising radiation, enhanced contrast resolution, and precise anatomical visualisation. But those advantages can be lost if the right tools aren’t in place. Imaging Solutions helps ensure your biopsy procedures meet the highest standards for image quality, safety, and reliability — without interrupting your workflow.
