Continuing Cook Medical’s 25+ years of innovation in endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), the 22 gage EchoTip ClearCore needle is used with an ultrasound endoscope for fine needle biopsy (FNB) of submucosal and extramural lesions, mediastinal masses, lymph nodes, and intraperitoneal masses within or adjacent to the gastrointestinal tract.
- Enhanced flexibility
The spring-coiled delivery sheath—coated inside and out—is designed to maximize flexibility for accessing difficult anatomy and gives you exceptional control to advance the needle without adjusting your scope.
- Optimized puncture
The echogenic Franseen needle—made from a cobalt chromium (CoCr) alloy to minimize deformation1—allows you to puncture tissue with minimal force to rapidly target lesions.
- Controlled precision
The ergonomic, contoured handle facilitates needle control and stability, and the ReCoil® stylet’s unique design allows you to easily manage the stylet during the procedure.
