The Science of VAB
Is ultrasound VAB worth it? The data says yes.
The Science of VAB has revealed why Vacuum-Assisted Biopsy (VAB) devices are beneficial in ultrasound-guided breast biopsy procedures.1 Here’s how the Mammotome Revolve™ U/S Dual Vacuum-Assisted Breast Biopsy System can help maximize tissue specimen size and procedural control.
Mammotome Revolve™ U/S System Benefits
- Advanced tissue management
- Automatically collects and organizes specimens in touch-free chambers for tissue verification and easy imaging
- Maximize tissue sample size with larger gauge sizes (8G, 10G) and stronger vacuum than the Mammotome® Elite device
- Customized control
- Adjustable vacuum levels with dual vacuum technology
- Variable aperture settings to more closely match length of aperture with size and location of lesion
- Continuous biopsy mode to take samples back-to-back while holding the biopsy activation button
- Mark the site with a Mammotome marker (e.g. HydroMARK™ marker) without removing the needle
- Full fluid management
- On-demand vacuum and continuous suction with SteadyVac manages fluid in the biopsy cavity
- Fluid insertion available through the device, including local anesthetic
- Multi-modality flexibility; compatible with the Mammotome Revolve™ ST biopsy system control module
