Breast Clips Are 90 Percent Water

When women undergo multiple breast biopsies, it is imperative that multiple breast clips be available in order to distinguish the suspicious areas on a mammogram. HydroMark is the only breast marker made of 90 percent water which encapsulates a metal clip. Sonographically visible for an extended period of time, the polymer allows every needle localization to be performed under ultrasound, thus avoiding the painful compression of mammography. HydroMark has released an additional clip shape in multiple modalities.
