TATO gives you good control during ablation procedures due to the possibility to see the ablation progression under Ultrasound Guidance and perform immediately after a low artifact post-ablation CT follow-up with the antenna still in place. A broad range of detachable antennas (from 11G to 18G) are offered allowing to choose the best suitable Gauge for each procedure and organ: liver, lung, kidney, thyroid. An 18 Gauge antenna with a length of 8cm has specifically been designed to optimize thyroid ablation procedures. TATO 18G thyroid antenna allows to perform a multiple overlapping technique, compared to the Moving Shot Technique used with radiofrequency, performing larger ablations, reducing the number of insertions and the time of the procedure. Characteristics Fluid Injections TATOpro applicator allows injecting fluids into the tissue. Size TATOpro applicators are available in 11, 14, 17 and 18G Detachable The low loss MW cable can be detached from the applicator to allow an easy positioning and facilitate CT operations Multiprobe One single interface to control from 1 to 4 probes simultaneously and independently, with a maximum combined power of 120 watts. Dedicated thyroid antenna TATO thyroid antenna (18G x 8cm) is designed with a robust metal tip to target also calcified lesions, coated with Teflon to ensure a smooth penetration and positioning. Visibility Immediate follow up under CT with lower artifacts. The use of lower wattage minimizes the formation of “gas bubbles” and enhances visibility of the ablation progression under US guidance, giving good control to the operator when treating challenging lesions, reducing the risk of potential damages to surrounding structures. Efficiency TATO and TATOpro applicators are designed to minimize energy losses. The VLLTM (Very Low Loss) technology allows the applicators to operate, in absence of a cooling system, without causing skin burns. Versatility TATOpro applicators come in various sizes, ranging from 11G to 18G and in different lengths (8,10,15,20,25 cm). The detachable cable allows an easy handling and positioning of the probe even under CT. Up to 4 probes can be connected simultaneously, setting power independently for each antenna to treat different lesions at the same time as well as large multifocal tumors. Safety TATO has an automatic real-time safety control loop that stops the emission of MW in case a state of malfunctioning of the applicator is detected. Reflected Power for each antenna is monitored and visible on the display.
