Acquire™ S

Maximize Yield and Maintain Core Tissue Sample Quality
Rely on the benefits of the proven Franseen Needle to maximize diagnostic yield and maintain core tissue sample quality.²

Diagnostic Yield
Adequate diagnostic yield is critical to getting to a diagnosis and is playing an increasingly important role in oncology research and genomic sequencing to aid developing targeted cancer therapies.⁵ Based on more than 50 years of clinical use in interventional radiology⁶ and use in diagnostic EUS since 2016, the Franseen Needle design has a proven track record for diagnostic yield and accuracy.²

Histological Architecture
The Franseen needle has 3 symmetrical needle points with fully formed cutting heels³ that are electropolished for sharpness.⁴ End-cutting EUS needles may be preferred when larger histological specimens and preserved tissue architecture are required, which may aid in histologic processing.⁷

Designed for Ease of Puncture

• The Taper Point Stylet is designed for ease of puncture when performing EUS FNB.¹ Benchtop testing has demonstrated utilization of the Acquire S Taper Point Stylet that offers a 36.6% reduction in puncture force as compared to leading with the Franseen 22ga needle (stylet back).¹
• Bench testing of Acquire S with the Taper Point Stylet forward demonstrated equivalent puncture force to utilization of a fork tip EUS FNB needle.⁸
  

Stylet Features:

• The Taper Point Stylet geometry is designed to center the stylet point within the sheath during device passage in tortuous scope positions.⁹
• A white stylet clip is for identification of the Taper Point stylet system and a way to visibly distinguish it from the Acquire device.
• The Acquire S Taper Point stylet can be used in the advanced or retracted position for physician preference.
