Beacon Endoscopic debuts needle aspiration system

Gastroenterology endoscopy company Beacon Endoscopic has announced a limited market launch of its BNX system, a fine-needle aspiration system for use in endoscopic ultrasound and endoscopic bronchial ultrasound.

The system received clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in December 2010 and CE Mark approval in January 2012, according to the firm.

The BNX system loads and unloads aspiration needles of varying sizes, Beacon said. It also automatically sheaths all needles with a shield during needle removal.
