Encapson is a medical technology company with the mission to improve patient care through innovative echogenic visibility solutions for medical devices. Sono-Coat™ is a best-in-class coating-based visibility system that significantly improves the ultrasound visibility of medical devices in the body. It enables precise targeting of objects in deeper tissue structures (e.g. liver and kidney biopsies or ablations) and supports the physician in performing accurate, safe and error-free ultrasound-guided procedures.
Sono-Sheath™, Encapson's latest groundbreaking product, is an on-demand ultrasound visibility solution for biopsies, vascular access and brachytherapy needles. Sono-Sheath™ is a polymer sheath with a Sono-Coat™ tip, that can be placed on any biopsy, vascular access or brachytherapy needle. Sono-Sheath is a universal turn-key visibility solution providing unmatched ultrasound visibility. It facilitates first-time-right interventions reducing the number of failed attempts and false negative biopsy outcomes.
Universal compatibility with any needle means no change in clinical routines. Physicians can continue to use their favorite needle. The option to selectively use Sono-Sheath™ in more difficult patients makes it a cost-effective product.
