Concorde
Concorde is TransMed7's application of Zero5 technology to Stereotactic / 2D-3D Tomographic and Ultrasound guidance for soft tissue biopsy for the field of breast health.
This next generation platform offers a host of advantages
Unlimited Access
Concorde can sample any lesion regardless of proximity to the imaging plate or breast size due to the absence of dead space at the tip. Suitable for both prone and upright platforms. Low profile allows for target-on-scout.
Minimally Traumatic
The simple nature of the penetration profile combined with constant rotation allows the device to gently move tissue aside during approach to the target lesion. This results in far less bleeding and trauma compared to sharp-blade penetration.
No Console
Concorde does not require an expensive, custom console, but still features single insertion, multiple collection operation with vacuum assistance and a fluid management system.
Accurate Sampling
Since Concorde does not need to fire through the lesion prior to sampling, there is no chance for tissue displacement. This can remove the need to repeat "post-fire" x-ray imaging, reducing overall radiation exposure.
Unique coring mechanism - Forward or combined Forward/Side Coring for Ease of Use and Maximum Tissue Sampling Options
Both Concorde ST and Concorde US models feature an optional, removable, scoop-shaped tissue shield which allows an operator to sample "around the clock" for familiarity and ease of use.
Patient Comfort
The absence of firing reduces noise and fear associated with a sudden firing device. Additionally, patient exposure to radiation can be significantly reduced through the elimination of unnecessary imaging.
High Quality Samples
Concorde retrieves undistorted, full-core samples of any length regardless of tissue density. High-quality tissue samples are not only critical to the diagnosis, such samples best enable the many options available for newer precision medical treatments, including genomic based therapies.
Minimal Set-Up and Waste
Because there is no custom console, Concorde does not require extensive tubing or system priming.
Concorde ST is designed for use with TransMed7's VacuTower and RCU.
Concorde US is designed for use with either TransMed7's VacuPac for hand-held ultrasound guidance or with a reusable stage mount for Stereotactic/2D-3D Tomographic guidance and VacuTower.
