TryMed Sonostepper
Sonostepper
Prostate Brachytherapy is an effective treatment for localized prostate cancer with high patient tolerability and acceptable morbidity outcome data. It is a technique that delivers a high dose of radiation to a small target volume of tissue, minimizing radiation side-effects to adjacent structures.
TryMed is a simple device to stabilise a transrectal ultrasound transducer and allow defined single-step anteroposterioric movements and fine spatial positioning of the probe.
