    Transitioning your operating room procedures to the office has never been easier, thanks to the TruClear™ hysteroscopic tissue removal system. Hysteroscopy is the gold standard for direct visualization of the uterine cavity, allowing providers to determine if symptoms, like abnormal uterine bleeding, are related to intrauterine abnormalities.1 Whether you are looking to complete a diagnostic or operative hysteroscopy, we have you covered with our range of hysteroscopes and tissue shavers to target specific pathology.

    Benefits of in-office hysteroscopy for patients and physicians

    A win for the physician, because:

    • Some procedures† that take place in the OR can be translated to the office, but with no anesthesia or inconveniences of the OR.3
    • In-office hysteroscopy can enhance clinician productivity.3

    And a win for the patient, because:

    • See-and-treat approach allows for diagnosis and treatment at the same time, saving them time to get back to normal activities.3
    • A vaginoscopic approach can be used, which means less pain for the patient during the procedure and reduced risks of undergoing anesthesia.4
    • Hysteroscopy may result in cost savings for the patient because of decreased deductible responsibilities and copayments.3

    See if in-office hysteroscopy is right for you and your patients.
