Easy Handling with high precision

The design reflects the utmost attention to detail, not only in its overall structure but also in its safe, uncomplicated use and easily acquired handling skills. A small MR-compatible ceramic headring allows imaging even in the most modern MRI scanners. The ZD Sytem, according to Zamorano und Duchovny is based on the centre-of-arc principle. This provides almost unrestricted access to all the intracranial areas while, at the same time, permitting complete freedom of choice as regards the trepanation point.

The ZD aiming unit stands out by virtue of its practical, safe functionality. The single-point method of attachment to the headring enables the aiming unit to be mounted in any one of four positions on the ring. This permits completely unrestricted access to all parts of the cranium from any direction. A check with the target point simulator, which can be performed at any time during an intervention, provides highest safety.

Target point simulator

The target point simulator is an important aid to check the adjusted stereotactic coordinates. By this means, potential confusions between the left and right sides can be excluded, together with the use of curved instruments incapable of being directed to the target area. It also permits the stereotactic coordinates to be determined from burr holes in the operating theatre, without repeating the imaging procedure.

Moreover, the headring incorporated in the target point simulator can also be used as an additional patient’s headring at any time. The modular ZD System from inomed includes a wide ranging selection of special purpose instruments and sets of instruments, biopsy sets with forceps, biopsy probes with side cutting windows, spiral probes and many others. All are distinguished by uncompromising quality, functional design and ease of use, incorporating the many years of experience obtained with the ZD System.
