Brain Biopsy Solutions
Stereotactic BBC Brain Biopsy Cannula
The standard BBC Cannula supports confident cerebral tissue access through haptic feedback, numbered depth markings, and a secure locking mechanism. Ideal for routine neurosurgical workflows.
Navigable BBC Brain Biopsy Cannula
All the reliability of the standard BBC design – with added compatibility for neuronavigation systems. Features a floating marker interface for seamless digital workflow integration during stereotactic and CT-guided biopsies.
Navigation Markers
Neuromedex retroreflective markers are easily attached to compatible biopsy cannulas, enabling real-time orientation in image-guided neurosurgical procedures.
Brain Biopsy Cannula Features
-
Visual + tactile feedback
Recessed grip markers provide permanent awareness of the cutting window’s position – visually and haptically – during the procedure.
-
Intuitive locking mechanism
An ergonomic screw design offers secure locking at the desired insertion depth, with numeric ruler markings supporting exact control and reproducibility.
-
Controlled sampling
Precisely sharpened cutting window edges to ensure clean, consistent tissue samples – with no compromise on safety.
-
Navigation-ready
Optimised for Brainlab® and Medtronic® systems, the floating depth guide and recessed grip structure support real-time tracking and digital integration.
(Navigable BBC only)
-
Soft aspiration tube
A flexible aspiration line enables sample collection without displacing or deforming the cannula - ensuring smooth handling throughout.
-
Sterile, single-use design
Each cannula is sterile-packed and ready to use, supporting hygienic workflows and avoiding cross-contamination risks in neurosurgical settings.
