The TruClear™ tissue shaver technology

More options mean more control in every procedure.

When used with the TruClear™ system, our dense tissue shavers can provide complete pathology removal.1

Both TruClear™ dense tissue shavers offer:

  • Simultaneous tissue cutting and aspiration to reduce procedure time†,2
  • Proprietary suction control feature - suction is only activated while cutting is in progress
  • 10 mm cutting window to aspirate greater volumes of tissue‡,3
