About Merit Oncology
Guiding Precision. Leading with Vision.
It might have been good enough to replace a dated procedure with a better patient experience. It might have been good enough to leverage a novel technology to improve the accuracy and utility of localization. It might have been good enough to deliver an industry-leading instrument that inspires confidence and informs cures. We’re not in the business of good enough. We are shifting paradigms of thought, confronting the status quo, and willing a higher standard of care into being. We are Merit Oncology.

Our Technology
SCOUT® Radar Localization
Harness the Power of RADAR
Unparalleled precision that optimizes the care pathway from diagnosis to surgical treatment.7
The SCOUT system is clinically proven to improve breast center workflow, reduce delays to surgery and support optimal cosmetic results.3 All while easing the treatment burden for patients. Discover why SCOUT is used in over 500 procedures a day.6
No restrictions. No compromise.
- The only localization device that can effectively eliminate the localization procedure through placement at the time of biopsy.2
- SCOUT MRI artifact is clinically insignificant and will not impede pre-op imaging or gauging Neoadjuvant response.8
- Stability: SCOUT’s unique design ensures the reflector remains where placed in both radiology and intra-operatively.7
- Non-magnetic, non-radioactive so no concern for recalibrating or need to use special instruments in the OR.6
- No complex setup, no multiple high cost disposables, easy to use.6
Suspicious Lesions/Nodes: Place SCOUT Reflector at Biopsy
Eliminate the need for subsequent localization appointment.
Pre-operative MRI if Needed
SCOUT does not interfere with interpretation.
Progress to Surgery with Precision Accuracy
Place Biopsy Clip
Pre-operative MRI if Needed
Patient Returns for Localization Procedure
Another appointment. Added Inconvenience and anxiety.
