Key Features
Mid-Range Gauge: The 20-gauge size offers a balance between the thinner 22G and the thicker 18G probes. It provides more rigidity than the 22G, making it easier to steer in denser tissue, while creating a larger thermal lesion than the thinner models.
Nitinol Construction: The use of Nitinol ensures the probe is highly flexible and resistant to permanent kinking. This allows it to be inserted and withdrawn from cannulae multiple times during a single procedure while maintaining its straight profile.
Single-Use Safety: The "SU" designation confirms the probe is provided pre-sterilized and is intended to be discarded after one patient. This eliminates the risk of cross-contamination and the administrative burden of hospital reprocessing.
Compatibility: This probe is designed to work with Avanos RF Generators and must be used with a matching 20G x 100mm RF cannula.
