Product catalog summary
Introduction
Renishaw, a precision engineering company, has expanded its expertise into healthcare, focusing on functional neurosurgery with the neuro | guide™ electrode introducer kit. This kit is designed to enhance the precision of electrode placement in neurosurgical procedures using MRI guidance.

Product Overview
The neuro | guide™ electrode introducer kit consists of two main components: the stylet and the guide tube. The stylet is a short-term implant used to verify brain target positions radiologically, while the guide tube is a long-term implant bonded to the skull, serving as a conduit for electrode insertion.

Key Features
  • Enables precise electrode positioning relative to targeted anatomy using MRI.
  • Compatible with DBS procedures, reducing surgery time and patient distress.
  • Eliminates the need for repeated full stereotactic procedures, saving time and resources.

Instrument Guide System
The neuro | guide™ instrument guide system is essential for the electrode introducer kit's delivery. It includes a single-use sterile guide rod and reusable guide elements, featuring:
  • Compatibility with Elekta AB Leksell and Integra Radionics CRW™ stereotactic systems.
  • Tungsten carbide guide rod for enhanced stiffness and accuracy.
  • Stainless steel guide elements for multiple uses.

Availability
The neuro | guide™ system is currently available only in Europe.

Conclusion
Renishaw's neuro | guide™ electrode introducer kit represents a significant advancement in functional neurosurgery, offering precision and efficiency in electrode placement, ultimately improving patient outcomes.

The neuro | guide™ electrode introducer kit allows electrode position relative to targeted anatomy using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). neuro | guide™ is made up of two parts. The stylet is the short-term implant that is used to verify brain target position radiologically so that an electrode can be inserted to the target position. The guide tube is the long term implant where the threaded area is bonded to the skull. The guide tube extends into the brain and acts as a conduit for the introduction of an electrode. neuro | guide™ electrode introducer kit enables neurosurgeons to opt for a DBS...
