Description
Key Features
Integrated Side-Port: Features a tethered port that allows clinicians to deliver local anesthetics or contrast media while the RF probe is still in place. This maintains the "sweet spot" on the target nerve and prevents the need for repositioning.
Insulated Cannula: The stainless steel body is fully insulated, ensuring that the radiofrequency energy is strictly confined to the 2 mm active tip to protect non-target tissue.
Optimized for Knee & SI Joint: The 75 mm length is widely considered the "workhorse" size for genicular nerve blocks and SI joint denervation.
Radiopaque Accuracy: The tip is highly visible under fluoroscopy (X-ray), enabling the physician to verify exact anatomical placement before starting the procedure.
Procedural Efficiency: Combines aspiration, fluid injection, and RF ablation into one access point, which can reduce procedural time and patient discomfort.
