Small seed. Big impact.
Why upgrade to the Magseed® marker for wire-free breast lesion localisation surgery?
If you are beginning to research seed localisation technologies or have already made up your mind that you are upgrading from wire localisation to seeds, once you give our Magseed® marker and Sentimag® guidance system a try, you won’t look back.
Here’s why…
Easy to place
You can place it when you want, where you need.
A Magseed® marker can be placed days, weeks or months ahead of surgery to suit both you and your patients schedules.
The procedure is very simple and can often be completed in a matter of minutes.† This flexibility means you don’t have to worry about additional procedures on the day of surgery affecting scheduling.
Find it. Mark it. Forget it.
Once implanted, it doesn't move, it's unbreakable and it's always detectable.
Unlike conventional guide wires, after a Magseed® marker has been placed, patients won’t be able to feel it and its special design means it will sit firmly implanted in the cancer.
From the time it’s placed to the time of the surgery, it can’t be dislodged or broken† and your patients don’t have to think any more about it.
Remove in one operation
Greater accuracy means fewer surgeries.
No patient wants have to go through cancer surgery and no one wants to go through it more than once. Unfortunately with guide-wires, roughly 25% of the time a second surgery is needed.†
The Magseed® marker and our magnetic guidance system, Sentimag®, has been shown to reduce this down to as low as 6.5%, but typically averages around 12-20% shown across multiple studies.†
It's time to retire the wire
Cancer is being detected earlier. Treatments must keep up.
Wire-guided surgery was invented nearly 50 years ago yet is still the global standard in breast cancer removal.
Technology has moved on since then and now the Magseed® marker and Sentimag® guidance system is overcoming many of the shortcomings of guide-wires and transforming the way breast cancer surgery is performed.
