Discounted Nuclear Medicine Equipment

• Acts as a shielded clip of source/spacer strings for individual needles.
• Loads just like a (shielded) needle, without the need for bone wax, then attaches to the needle when ready to load.
• Allows needles to be placed carefully before the seeds are present.
• Contains mechanical stops to prevent loss of seeds from the end during transfer.
• User-operated gate prevents unintentional seed injection.
• Grabs and withdraws the needle well beyond the end of the plunger to reduce suction of the final spacer.
• Allows the entire strand of seeds and spacers for a single needle to be deposited in one motion, avoiding suction effects and subsequent clumping between seeds.
• Allows real-time loading of seed configurations, and for last-minute changes in loading.
• With a rapid loader (e.g. Speedloader), a full clip can be loaded while its needle is being positioned via ultrasound.
• Dramatically reduces radiation exposure, especially when used with the Speedloader™.

The Seed Shuttle at Work:

Our exclusive Seed Shuttle provides safer, more efficient "real time" loading of brachytherapy implant needles with seeds and spacers. To view the seed shuttle at work with the speedloader click on the button below.
