Markers for Predictable Placement and Rapid Expansion
Mammotome offers a family of marker products for vacuum-assisted and core needle biopsy procedures, visible under x-ray, ultrasound and MRI imaging modalities, to radiographically mark the biopsy site.
CorMARK™
CorMARK™ is designed to consistently mark biopsy sites following a 14-gauge core needle biopsy. CorMARK can be inserted into the breast directly or used with a 13-gauge coaxial introducer.
- Delivers predictable placement in the biopsy cavity
- Single, self-expanding collagen plug expands up to 300% after deployment to fill the biopsy cavity
- Purified collagen has been used for more than 25 years as an implant for hemostasis, wound healing and cosmesis
The consistently-visible CorMARK single collagen plug:
- Provides a large surface area for ultrasound wave reflection and casts a highly visible acoustic shadow
- Is echogenic to allow real-time imaging under ultrasound, both for placement and follow-up for a few weeks
- Designed to be more reliable than multiple pledgets that can be displaced and difficult to localize under ultrasound
Embedded titanium clip:
- Offers long-term visibility after collagen resorbs
- Visible under x-ray and MRI
- Identifies critical locations for follow-up in neoadjuvant chemotherapy cases
MammoMARK™
MammoMARK™ offers compatibility with most breast biopsy systems while providing visibility under all imaging modalities.
- Single, self-expanding collagen plug expands up to 300% after deployment to fill the biopsy cavity
- Embedded titanium clip remains centrally located in the biopsy site after the collagen resorbs
- Multiple marker shapes for multiple site placement
