Seed Slider

Seed Slider

  • Minimize the risk of dropping seeds
  • View and verify seeds and spacers easily on the loading slot to confirm positioning before loading into needles
  • Lock needles onto one side of the Seed Slider with a Universal Luer-Lok®
  • Universal Luer-Lok® is adjustable to fit implant needles
  • Combine the Seed Sterilization and Sorting Tray with the Seed Slider for protection from radiation. Store seeds inside the tray and access as needed.
  • Simply take seeds out of the tray wells and slide into position using the provided spatula
  • Fast loading … 25 needles in about 8 minutes

The Seed Slider is specifically designed to be the most efficient instrument for loading seeds and spacers into prostate implant needles. Clinicians align the seeds and spacers into a slot per treatment prescription and encapsulate the seeds and spacers using a cover. The needles lock onto one side of the Seed Slider with a Luer-Lok® and a needle stylet is inserted to smoothly push the seeds and spacers into the treatment needle. The Seed Slider when used with the Seed Sterilization and Sorting Tray can be sterilized together saving time and effort.

SeedVac

SeedVac™

  • Fast loading, 25 needles in about 5 minutes
  • Minimal radiation exposure, maximum distance from seeds
  • Works like a vacuum tweezers

SeedVac™ is a vacuum driven instrument designed to pull prostate implant seeds and spacers into a clear tube tip. Seeds are drawn into the tube tip by placing a finger over the hole on the hand piece to create a vacuum. The prescribed sequence of seeds and spacers is visually verified in the tube tip before being placed into the needle. Seeds and spacers are then placed into an implant needle simply by lifting the finger off of the hole. A circular brass shield near the end of the hand piece provides radiation protection to the hand during the loading procedure. Components can be steam sterilized between each use.
