Abstract: The present invention relates to a device which can be applied to the body surface to guide the motion of treatment medical instruments at target tissues inside the body by allowing to adjust their insertion and extraction trajectory.

Abstract: A microwave device for the ablation of biological tissues including a coaxial antenna, including an internal conductor, surrounded by a layer of dielectric material, an external conductor coaxial to the dielectric metal tip electrically connected to the internal conductor, and a quarter wave impedance transformer including a sleeve made of dielectric material having a proximal end covered with a layer of metal, the metal extending over nearly a quarter wavelength of electromagnetic field in the dielectric at the operating frequency of the device or of odd multiples of the quarter wavelength, the layer of metal material being connected electrically to the external conductor.

Abstract: A system for the infusion of pharmacological solutions includes a container to contain a pharmacological solution, a pumping device for generating a flow of pharmacological solution from the container, an adjusting device to vary the flow and a command and control device operationally associated with the adjusting device. A method for the infusion of a pharmacological solution in a patient includes generating a flow of pharmacological solution from a container containing the pharmacological solution, sending the flow to a catheter insertable in the patient, adjusting the flow by an adjusting device actuated by a command and control device, and programming the flow and infusion times using a programming device operationally connected to the command and control device.

Abstract: A biopsy device comprising a body, a mandrel provided with housing intended to receive a sample of organic tissue, a concentric hollow needle outside the mandrel, said mandrel and said hollow needle being slidingly coupled with said body and being movable in a direction parallel to the respective longitudinal axes between a respective proximal position and a respective distal position, a distal portion of said mandrel and of said hollow needle protruding outside said body; the biopsy device further comprises a concentric cannula outside said hollow needle, said cannula having sufficient length to cover completely said distal portion of said mandrel and said distal portion of hollow needle when the mandrel and the hollow needle are in a preset intermediate position between said distal position and said proximal position.

Abstract: The apparatus (1) for transcutaneous biopsy of rigid tissues includes hollow needle (2) provided with tapered distal end (3), blocking part (10) suitable for being inserted into the hollow needle (2) in order to block a sample of the tissue at the interior of the hollow needle (2), the blocking part (10) includes blade (11;13), handle (6) associated with a proximal end of hollow needle (2), the blocking part (10) is coupled with advancing part (9) suitable for advancing the blocking part (10) inside the hollow needle (2) between a first rear position and a second forward position.

Abstract: Device for transcutaneous biopsy comprising needle means provided with handle at a proximal end thereof and provided with cutting edge at a distal end thereof, mandrel means which may be inserted into the needle means, the needle means comprising a substantially cylindrical hollow body having a substantially constant inner diameter; the device comprises blocking means suitable for blocking a sample of tissue inside the needle means, the blocking means being slidably coupled inside the needle means.
