SCOPE OF WORK Ultrasonic Aspirators are surgical devices designed to fragment and remove soft tissue, bone, and tumors from various parts of the body. They are used during procedures in which surgical blades or blunt dissection instruments might damage surrounding healthy tissue or for cases in which a surgical laser would eradicate a lesion, leaving no specimen for pathological evaluation. Ultrasonic aspirators utilize mechanical vibration at ultrasonic frequencies for tissue removal while also providing suction and/or irrigation to the surgical site.
