Product facts and notices

Advantages

The FAS has got a very sharp, lanceaolate sharpened needle-tip, facilitating a precise puncturing or cutting.
The echoic needle-tip is produced with a new technique by use of a laser; that means the needle-tip is free of grinding-dust. The tip provides a steady and excellent visibility within the picture of the ultrasound.
If requested we produce ultrasound markings following an innovative beam technology (embossed).
Different dimensions of the needle concerning length, outer and inner diameter allow it to individually adept them to diagnostical and therapeutical goals.
Translucent tubings having the same inner diameter as the needle ensure a reliable and unobstructed flow of the oocytes.
A marking on the grip shows the physician the position of the opening of the sharpened tip of the single-lumen needle during puncturing.
If requested we enclose sterile ultrasound-covers for transducers. These FAS are labelled with an additional “-U” after the order number.
