  • Device for injecting bone cement
    Patent number: 8702741
    Abstract: In a device for injecting bone cement, the discharge direction of the bone cement after insertion of the cannula should be controllable in a certain region. This is made possible through a radial exit aperture (5) which is provided on the front end of the cannula (3). Since the cannula is inserted with the aid of a guide wire (1), it has an orifice (4) on its front end, which orifice must be closed off by means of a ball (15) prior to the injection. A plunger serves to insert the ball (15). So that the situation of the radial aperture (5) is known at all times, even with inserted cannula, the handle (17) of the cannula has an asymmetrical shape.

  • Puncturing device for tomography
    Patent number: 6425871
    Abstract: A puncturing device that can be observed by means of tomography, such as MRI, which can be operated simply, safely and reliably. One embodiment of the invention includes a cuboid body containing a needle guide, which extends to a base area of the cuboid body. The base area is configured for placement on the skin of a patient. Marker bores disposed in the cuboid body and containing a contrast medium make it possible to precisely align the needle guide with a tomography picture plane in that the images of the bores have to assume a particular mutual configuration on a monitor. This allows a puncture needle used with the needle guide to be observed along its entire path on tomograms.
