Harness the Power of RADAR

The only localization solution that uses the power of RADAR. SCOUT stands alone with accurate, real-time detection and localization that can be placed at the time of biopsy.

SCOUT

SCOUT is the preferred localization solution globally. Over 500 SCOUT procedures performed every day means that every three minutes, a patient is receiving care guided by the precision of SCOUT.1 Lower patient burdens, improve workflows, and pursue better experiences and outcomes with the unique and powerful accuracy of SCOUT.

Tiny Reflector. Huge Impact.

 

  • Long-term implant Reflector can be placed any time prior to surgery
  • Can be placed at the time of biopsy2
  • Less than 1% migration rate1
  • Can be placed under any imaging modality
  • Reflector remains in place and passive until activated by the SCOUT Guide
  • Can be used to mark soft tissue, including lymph nodes
  • Reflector is smaller than a grain of rice
  • Antennas are made of super elastic nitinol alloy, commonly used in medical devices

Designed for Accuracy & Stability in Placement

 

  • Reflector Retention Tab
  • Added reflector stability until deployed
  • Intuitive Bevel Orientation
  • Improved Unlocking and Deployment Mechanism
  • Supports ease of use for proper placement
  • The radiologist uses real-time imaging to guide the tip of the needle to the precise location of the tumor or lesion.
  • The needle is retracted which unsheaths the reflector in place.
  • The antennae, located at the each end of the device help anchor the reflector at the site of deployment and minimize migration.4
