OverviewTraining platform for ultrasound-guided biopsy and ablation on modular thyroid models. Supports practice of multiple ablation modalities with embedded temperature sensing and an audible alarm for the danger triangle near the recurrent laryngeal nerve. Portable case and replaceable pads enable repeatable, cost-effective procedural training.
Procedures- Thyroid nodule radiofrequency ablation (RFA)
- Thyroid nodule microwave ablation (MWA)
- Thyroid nodule laser ablation
- Thyroid nodule cryoablation
- Thyroid nodule ethanol ablation (PEI)
- Thyroid nodule core needle biopsy (CNB)
- Thyroid nodule fine needle aspiration (FNA)
Features- Ultrasound-visible anatomy and ablation effects
- Thyroid gland
- Thyroid nodules
- Trachea
- Vessels around the danger triangle (carotid arteries and jugular veins)
- Hyper-echogenic cloud from ablation
- Replaceable nodules: outer diameter (OD) 2.0 cm and 3.2 cm
- Embedded temperature sensors monitor area near recurrent laryngeal nerve and trigger alarm on overheating/overcooling
- Neck muscle pad puncture durability: up to 50 punctures
- Modular pads for targeted scenario training and cost control
- Portable platform with included transport case
