Description

The Countess of Chester Hospital Breast Department is looking to purchase 2 Gamma Probe Machines with consumables and maintenance included. A gamma probe is a handheld device containing a scintillation counter, for intraoperative use following injection of a radionuclide, to locate sentinel lymph nodes by their radioactivity. It is used primarily for sentinel lymph node mapping and parathyroid surgery. Gamma probes are also used for RSL (radioactive seed localization), to locate small and non-palpable breast lesions. The Gamma Probe machines will be used to locate the cancer site within a patient's breast. The machines must be non-wireless and detect Technetium-99m and L-125.
