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, truly demonstrate their value.
Developed specifically for use in the MRI environment, these tools are trusted by medical imaging professionals who demand precision, MRI compatibility, and dependable performance – without compromise.
Why These 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 environment. Conventional equipmentmay introduce image artefacts or distortions, compromising both targeting accuracy and diagnostic quality. At worst, they may pose a significant risk to patient safety
Imaging Solutions’ MRI biopsy equipmentare designed to overcome these challenges:
- MRI Compatibility: Both the biopsy needle and cannula are constructed from non-ferromagnetic, MR compatible materials — making them suitable for use in 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
Compatible with a range of MRI-guided Interventions and Biopsies including:
- Spinal Pain Therapy: Periradicular Therapy; Facet Joint Infiltration
- Sympathicolysis (lumbal, thoracal)
- Diagnostic Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy, Direct MRI Arthrography
- Microtherapy, Injection Needle, Introducer Needle etc.
As minimally invasive and image-guided procedures become increasingly common, access to tools that integrate seamlessly with your MRI environmentis more important than ever.
Supporting Better Outcomes
The benefits of MRI guidance are clear: no ionising radiation, enhanced contrast resolution, and precise anatomical visualisation. Our MRI-compatible biopsy range supports radiology teams to harness these advantages and undertake MR-guided interventions and biopsies safely.
