iSYS Medizintechnik GmbH iONE Micromate

The intended use of the Micromate™ device is to function as a remote-operated positioning and guidance system during interventional procedures. Positioning is done in a remote-controlled manner; planning of the position/angulation is done based on 2D/3D patient data (CT, cone-beam CT, fluoroscopy) by external/internal planning software – for example using an image-guided navigation system or external/internal navigation system, or planning software coming with the used imaging device.Also, verification of the correct position and orientation of the tool prior to/during/after the intervention is done by means of these external devices. The Micromate™ system is then acting as a guideway during the manual insertion of the interventional tool – usually a needle type device, and the like - through a third-party needle guide, manufactured by Exact MM (K101689): P/N E2178 (Micromate Needle Guide Set, 8-11G), P/N E2183 (Micromate Needle Guide Set,10-14G) and P/N E2184 (Micromate Needle Guide Set, 15-21G). During operation, the device is covered with a sterile drape, which is part of the P/N2178, P/N E2183 and E2184. An additional third-party Control Unit Drape is available, also manufactured by Exact MM (K101689): P/N 11718EU (Micromate Control Unit Drape). Applications include, but are not limited to, interventions like biopsy procedures, tumor ablation, nerve blocking, electrode placement, etc.
