WINSTON-SALEM, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A new histology needle for endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) from Cook Medical is now on the market, giving physicians the ability to retrieve tissue samples from hard-to-reach regions within or adjacent to the GI tract with a minimally invasive procedure. The EchoTip® ProCore™ High Definition Ultrasound Biopsy Needle from Cook Medical is developed to allow the targeting of small lesions with increased sampling yields and potentially fewer needle passes compared to what was previously available,1 which could minimize patient trauma and may improve the accuracy and efficiency of core biopsies. The EchoTip ProCore needle incorporates proven EUS technology developed by Cook, a pioneer in EUS needles and accessories and the only full-line supplier of endoscopic devices.
