Positioning systems by MTT

Our positioning systems help you to accurately place instruments, applicators or needles on the patient. Our system arms can be operated with one hand and remain securely in position.

We can recommend different systems depending on the intended application. Our current focus is on the development of urological and surgical positioning systems.

This is our overview of positioning systems:

SolidLock

The SolidLock is the foundation of our positioning systems. Its various variants and attachments allow for a broad spectrum of medical applications.

Merkmale
  • free positioning of the attachment in the room
  • keeps the attachment reliably in position
  • operable with one hand

EndoMotion

The positioning system features a modified articulated arm with shortened tubes and height adjustment, along with a laparascope holder attachment.

Einsatzgebiete
  • laparoscopy

SoLo A

This transperineal access system consists of the universal articulated arm, our A-TP stepper with template holder, and an encoder for software support.

Einsatzgebiete
  • general TRUS applications
  • prostate biopsy
  • MRI fusion of the prostate
  • brachytherapy (LDR/HDR)
  • cryotherapy

SoLo B

This endorectal access system is composed of two components: the universal articulated arm and the basic stepper. It serves as an economical alternative to SoLo A, particularly for applications that do not necessitate needle guidance and do not require software support.

Einsatzgebiete
  • general TRUS applications
  • SpaceOAR
  • BPH procedure (Procept Biorobotics/Aquablation)

Positioning arms for urology, surgery, and other procedures

Precise instrument, needle, or applicator positioning is essential in many procedures.For instance, in prostate ultrasound examinations, our SoLo A and SoLo B systems are employed for accurate placement of endorectal ultrasound probes.In endoscopy, our laparoscope holder, EndoMotion, is utilized. Conversely, our universal articulated arm, SolidLock, has a wide range of applications due to its various arm options and customizable attachments. This versatility extends beyond medical procedures, making it a valuable asset in various industrial settings as well.

Single-handed operation of system arms

The systems, based on one the articulated arm SolidLock, are so flexible that they can be operated with one hand, providing a reliable hold for instruments when needed. To move the attachment to a new position, simply press the handle, reposition the articulated arm, and release the handle to fix the new position. This feature gives you and your team an extra hand for operating other instruments. This makes MTT’s positioning systems a reliable holding aid in medical and industrial environments.

MDR-certified positioning systems from Germany

Our holding aids are designed for easy handling, top quality, and a competitive price point. We develop our products in Germany and produce with the support of German suppliers. The basis of our positioning systems, the universal articulated arm SolidLock and its variants, are considered non-invasive medical devices of class I and are approved for temporary or short-term use in accordance with EU MDR 2017/745.
