UROLIFT OVERVIEW
Targeted Fusion Biopsy
(New MR solution for analysis, planning and targeted biopsy of the prostate)
This complete clinical MR solution for the prostate consists of DynaCAD for Prostate and the UroNav fusion biopsy system – a comprehensive solution which offers a cutting edge imaging option for many patients with elevated and/or rising PSA levels
Targeted MR/ultrasound biopsy is poised to become the new standard in prostate care. UroNAV fuses pre-biopsy MR images of the prostate with ultrasound-guided biopsy images in real time, excellent delineation of the prostate and suspicious lesions.
The fusion of the MR and ultrasound images uses electromagnetic tracking, similar to your car’s GPS system; a tiny tracking sensor attaches to the trans-rectal ultrasound probe generates a small, localized electromagnetic field that helps determine the location and orientation of the biopsy devices. A sophisticated algorithm maintains the fusion of MR and ultrasound images, even when the patient moves.
