Carefusion CTT2020 - Coaxial Temno Evolution Biopsy Needle 20G x 20cm, 5/CS

The Carefusion CTT2020 is a Coaxial Temno Evolution Biopsy Needle, designed for precision tissue sampling in soft tissue biopsies. With a 20-gauge needle diameter and 20cm length, this device combines advanced coaxial access with Temnos renowned tissue capture technology to provide consistent, high-quality core samples. The ergonomic design, sharp trocar tip, and smooth activation mechanism make it an ideal choice for interventional radiologists and clinicians requiring reliability and control in percutaneous biopsy procedures.

Optimized for image-guided use (CT, ultrasound, or fluoroscopy), the CTT2020 supports safe, accurate, and minimally invasive biopsies in diagnostic and therapeutic settings.

Key Benefits

• Coaxial Needle System: Allows for multiple sample retrievals through a single insertion site, reducing tissue trauma.

• Temno Evolution Technology: Ensures consistent core capture with minimal fragmentation, ideal for histopathological analysis.

• 20G x 20cm Dimensions: Balances access reach and sample volume for a wide range of target depths and anatomical sites.

• Sharpened Trocar Tip: Facilitates easy insertion and precise targeting under imaging guidance.

• One-Handed Activation: Enhances control and efficiency, especially in ultrasound-guided settings.

Compatibility and Applications
Compatible with:

• Imaging systems (ultrasound, CT, fluoroscopy)

• Biopsy guidance software and positioning tools

• Soft tissue access devices and coaxial introducers

Used in:

• Interventional radiology suites

• Oncology clinics and diagnostic imaging centers

• Minimally invasive biopsy procedures across lung, liver, kidney, lymph nodes, and other tissues

• Outpatient and inpatient diagnostic settings

Usage Guidelines

• Use under imaging guidance to identify and align with the target lesion.

• Insert the coaxial needle to the appropriate depth.

• Activate the biopsy mechanism to retrieve the tissue sample.

• Repeat as needed through the coaxial sheath without re-puncturing the skin.

• Dispose of device according to institutional sharps protocol.

These certifications validate its suitability for use in high-stakes clinical environments.

Comparison with Competitor Products
Compared to traditional core biopsy systems or non-coaxial tools, the CTT2020 offers:

• Reduced trauma due to coaxial reuse of a single entry path

• Higher quality tissue cores via Temnos capture mechanism

• Faster, safer sample collection with minimal repositioning

It stands out for its one-handed operation and flexible use across imaging modalities, making it a clinician-preferred device.

Typical User Profile and Application Scenarios
Used by:

• Interventional radiologists

• Diagnostic and interventional oncologists

• Pulmonologists and nephrologists

• Pathology-focused proceduralists

Ideal for:

• Soft tissue mass sampling in liver, kidney, lung, or breast

• CT- or ultrasound-guided diagnostic biopsies

• Repeat sample collections through one access site

• Cases requiring minimal bleeding and trauma

Best Practices for Use and Maintenance

• Confirm needle gauge and length is appropriate for the procedure.

• Use sterile technique throughout the procedure.

• Always visualize needle position in real time using appropriate imaging.

• Do not reusethis is a sterile, single-use instrument.

• Handle all sharps with caution and discard immediately after use.

Regulatory and Safety Information
Single-use, sterile, latex-free device. Not intended for vascular use. Only for use by trained medical professionals in a clinical setting. Follow local regulatory and facility safety guidelines for biopsy procedures.
