Magseed MagneticTissue Marker Length 12cm - Magseed is a single-use sterile device composed of a magnetic marker (seed) preloaded in a delivery system. It is intended to be placed percutaneously into soft tissue to long-term mark a site intended for surgical removal. Using imaging guidance (such as ultrasound or radiography) or aided by non-imaging guidance the marker is located and surgically removed with the target tissue.
A device intended to be implanted within the body, either temporarily or permanently, to create identifying marks that can be seen on radiographic film or digital images. It is typically formed as a wire, needle, bead, clip, stent-like tube or washer, and used to locate and delineate a tumour, lesion, or other site of interest. It is made from materials compatible with the imaging system with which it is intended to be used [e.g., magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), x-ray, or nuclear medicine]; it may be intended for use during radiotherapy procedures.
