MatrixBrush
Advanced Design. Reduced Discomfort. Reliable Results.
The MatrixBrush Endometrial Sampler is a true innovation in the collection of endometrial samples and a tangible advance in healthcare for women.
Pioneered by PathAdvantage, the MatrixBrush provides endometrial sampling with the highest diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity while also being easy on the patient. As the exclusive provider of the MatrixBrush, we are the only laboratory that can supply your practice with the device and effectively provide results. We also provide additional minimally-invasive biopsy devices for both cervical and endocervical biopsy collection with the Soft Biopsy and Soft ECC devices.
A Tapered Brush Head
The MatrixBrush’s revolutionary tapered head design allows for more global sampling of the endometrium, leading to a tissue specimen that more accurately reflects the status of the endometrium. Slightly angled atraumatic tip allows for ease of entry through the os.
Ruler Markings
The MatrixBrush shaft features ruler markings so you can more accurately pinpoint depth of placement into the uterine cavity. There is also an “open” and “close” indicator for brush exposure.
Sliding Protective Sheath
The MatrixBrush’s sliding sheath allows the customized brush head to fit the smallest to largest uterine cavity. The sheath also prevents contamination of the brush head by vaginal or cervical tissue upon insertion.
Angled Handle
The MatrixBrush’s long and angled handle allows greater maneuverability and control when obtaining a sample.
SoftBiopsy® Devices
During colposcopy, or for the evaluation of abnormal vaginal bleeding, a biopsy of the ectocervix and/or the endocervix may be indicated. If there is a suspicion of neoplasia, the SoftBiopsy or the Soft-ECC devices can be used as an alternative to punch biopsy/curettage devices. When carefully applied to lesions, pressed and rotated, they will painlessly remove numerous full thickness fragments of tissue, similar to multiple small punch biopsies. The head and edge of the Soft-ECC devices are designed to fit easily and gently into the cervical canal. After the biopsy, the device heads can simply be snapped from the handle and placed in the liquid fixative vial for transport to the lab.
Soft-ECC Brush
When carefully inserted, the blunted tapered shaped KYLON fabric covered device head and edges are designed to fit easily and gently into the cervical canal.
SoftBiopsy Device
When carefully applied to the lesion, pressed and rotated, the round flat platform tip (just under 1/2 inch in diameter) KYLON fabric will excavate numerous full thickness tissue pieces like multiple small punch biopsies.
