SOMATEX - Lung Marker System
We developed the Lung Marker System for use in surgical video-assisted thoracoscopic procedures (VATS). VATS procedures, smaller and non-superficial nodules are often difficult to find. The SOMATEX Lung Marker enables the safe and precise marking of such pulmonary nodules. The risk of conversion from a VATS procedure to an open thoracotomy due to inaccurate or erroneous marking is reduced.

The Lung Marker System is used for the preoperative marking of smaller, non-palpable intrapulmonary nodules. We have developed the localization wire specifically for use in surgical video-assisted thoracoscopic procedures (VATS) such as VATS lobectomies. Accurate localization of the nodule is a decisive factor in conducting successful VATS procedures.
