Key Benefits

• Precision Sampling The sharp cutting edge ensures clean and intact core biopsy samples, reducing tissue fragmentation and enhancing diagnostic accuracy.
• Coaxial Design Enables multiple sample collections with a single puncture, minimizing tissue trauma and improving procedural efficiency.
• Minimized Patient Discomfort Designed for smooth penetration with minimal trauma, ensuring a better patient experience.
• Sterile, Single-Use Design Reduces the risk of cross-contamination and infection, ensuring adherence to healthcare safety protocols.
• Versatile Clinical Application Suitable for soft tissue biopsies across various anatomical regions.

• The four-sided needle bevel results in a super-sharp tip for quick, easy insertion with less trauma to organs and surrounding tissue.
• Standard bevel needles can drift or deflect from their target. The revolutionary shape of the Temno Evolution needle tip keeps it on track, reducing deflection as much as 85%.
• A significantly shorter needle tip (up to 29% shorter than standard bevel needles) minimizes the risk of perforating surrounding organs and vessels.
