Helps develop, practice and maintain skills necessary to perform ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsies of the thyroid gland.
Supports learning of ultrasound system controls, position and move transducer, recognise the thyroid and surrounding structural anatomy, identify a variety of masses present in the thyroid gland, use ultrasound system calculation packages, and target the lesions for fine-needle biopsies.
Patented self-healing Simulex™ ultrasound tissue has imaging characteristics that mimic human tissue with self-healing properties, allowing for 1000+ punctures when used with an 18−21 gauge needle.
