Pre-Plugged Prostate Seeding Needles
Seed-Lock3™ is the only synthetic pre-plugged needle for
Brachytherapy. Its unique design means smoother loading, easier
delivery, accurate placement, and reliable expulsion. It removes the need for pre-sealing needles and provides a consistent known plug length and seed / strand implant feel.
 
SEED-LOCK3™ PRE-PLUGGED NEEDLES
SeedLock3 is the better choice for pre-plugged needles. Its unique design means smoother loading, easier delivery, accurate placement, and reliable expulsion.
Protect your patient, protect yourself.
- These third generation pre-plugged needles utilize an advanced synthetic bio-absorbable micro-plug which provides superior retention and smoother expulsion.
- Consistent plug location in every needle allows precise seed placement, taking full advantage of today's advanced planning and imaging modalities.
- New Accu-Trac™ needle tip design minimizes trauma while providing unequalled penetration and tracking.
- Ultra-enhanced echo tip improves imaging
- Proprietary EZ Load™ technology virtually eliminates problems associated with seed/spacer loading and placement.
- Exclusive ESD clear hub material actively removes static from the spacers/seeds. Available in round or square hub.
- CM marks on cannula and .5cm marks on stylet configured for either standard or Seattle technique (reversed markings).
- Vented stylet provides an air passage to needle tip equalizing pressure to eliminate unwanted seed displacement from vacuum phenomena.

SeedLock3™ - More Details
SeedLock3™ is the third generation of
brachytherapy’s original and premier pre-plugged needle. Its
unique, proprietary design and manufacturing process set it
apart from any other needle on the market.
SeedLock3™ features a synthetic bio-absorbable
plug comprised of a proprietary blend of polyglycolic acid (PGA)
and polycaprolactone (PCL). The plug is absorbed over 60 to 90
days through enzymatic reaction. The SeedLock3™ plug is a
constant 1.5 millimetres in length and is consistent in its
position, ensuring the first seed is always five millimetres
from the needle tip. The plug also features a consistent
push-out force, resulting in a perceptible “pop” indicating plug
displacement and ensuring smooth expulsion of the needle load.
Upon piercing the perineum, the steerable
SeedLock3™ is designed to create a flap rather than coring the
tissue, thus reducing trauma, bleeding, edema, and leaving no
tissue deposits in the gland. The needle hub is produced from an
exclusive electrostatic dissipating (ESD) material that actively
removes static from seeds, spacers, and strands.
Each SeedLock3™ also features a vented stylet,
which equalizes pressure and eliminates unwanted seed
displacement from vacuum phenomena. The included Grip Clip
secures stylet positioning by attaching to the needle hub and
ensures against accidental plug displacement.
SeedLock3™ is an 18 gauge, 20 centimetre
length needle and is available with either round
or square hubs. Sterile packs are provided in quantities of one
or five or in boxes of fifty.
