Aspen Valley Hospital’s Breast Center Upgrades Technology to SCOUT® Radar Location System

View full article at aspenhospital.org

Enter SCOUT: A wire-free localization system that uses an implant about the size of a grain of rice for breast and soft tissue tumor localization. It can be implanted at the time of biopsy, or any other time before surgery that marks the biopsy site. The SCOUT® reflector system uses radar detection instead of the traditional wire and radiation system used by surgeons for generations to guide them to the tumor.
