Nitinol Biliary Stone Basket Description

Nitinol Biliary Stone Basket is a specialized medical device designed for use in conjunction with endoscopes to retrieve biliary stones or foreign objects from the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract. Made from high-quality Nitinol, a biocompatible alloy with excellent flexibility and shape memory, this basket allows precise navigation within the bile ducts or digestive tract. Its flexible design ensures effective stone retrieval with minimal trauma, making it an essential tool in minimally invasive endoscopic procedures for patients with biliary stones or gastrointestinal obstructions.

Key Features:

Excellent shape memory: The basket retains its original shape even after multiple stone retrievals.

Round-shaped basket head: Reduces tissue damage during the procedure.

Self-protection function: The basket head automatically detaches in emergency situations.

Soft PTFE outer tube: Facilitates smooth navigation of the basket through tortuous anatomical passages.

Rotating handle: Allows 360° rotation of the basket for easy stone retrieval in different shapes.

Contrast agent inlet on the handle side: Enables the introduction of contrast media during the procedure for imaging.
