The patented hydrogel plug resorbs into the patient’s body after healing of the puncture site has occurred.

Each Bio-Sealâ„¢ system features two sets of plugs and co-axial adaptors to accommodate multiple lung biopsy sites.

Angiotech™ offers a broad range of 19G introducers designed for compatibility with the Bio-Sealâ„¢plug adaptor. These introducers maybe used in conjunction with any 20G or 22G biopsy device.
