 Product Information

TrackPointer

The Invivo TrackPointerTM is a  minimally  invasive  instrument.  It
allows best orientation and facilitates the exact localization of
suspect lesions or high-risk structures during MRI guided
interventions.
The TrackPointerTM is a tube which can either be filled with a sodium
chloride solution (0.09%) or with a solution of Gd-DTPA (1%). The
TrackPointerTM can be adapted to several tracking systems (e.g. GE
Flash Pointer).
The positive signal of the pointer makes it visible outside the patient
and in air-filled areas. It helps the physician to plan the intervention
and avoid calibration errors.
