The TryMed tripod (“Brachystepper") is a simple piece of equipment without electronic
parts designed for the stabilisation of a transrectal ultrasonographic sensing probe and allowing
defined single-step movements in an anteroposterioric direction, as well as fine spatial positioning,
of the probe.
It is delivered completely assembled and tested. Due to its mechanical design, no calibration
or other care is needed except standard cleaning and surface disinfections; a reusable puncture
template grid can be sterilised in an autoclave.
The tripod, along with other instruments (isotope application
equipment, ultrasounds, ultrasonographic sensors), serves in performing
sonographically-controlled
prostate
carcinoma
brachytherapy.
The brachytherapy procedure depends on the type of isotope radiation
source and is not part of this instruction.
These instruments have no impact on tripod manipulation because
the purpose of the tripod is to provide a stable fixing of the transrectal
probe in a position selected by the physician.
