Magnetic Tracer 10 Vials each containing 2ml of Magtrace. Magtrace is a magnetic tracer intended and calibrated for use with the Sentimag device only as part of an overall system to mark and locate lymph nodes in cancer patients prior to their surgical removal. Intended to be injected into interstitial tissue only in proximity to a tumor to facilitate its migration to sentinel lymph nodes for their subsequent localization by the Sentimag magnetometer.
A fluid magnetic material intended to be injected in close proximity to a tumour to facilitate its migration to sentinel lymph nodes; the lymph nodes can subsequently be localized with a magnetic field detector (magnetometer) and surgically removed for histological analysis. The device includes a suspension of dextran-coated iron oxide nanoparticles, available in a vial or syringe, that exhibit superparamagnetism in the presence of a magnetic field. It is typically used to support staging of a variety of cancers including breast, melanoma, prostate, and bowel. This is a single-use device.
