MammoMARK MMK1001 Bowtie Biopsy Site Identifier Overview
Authorized Mammotome MammoMARK supplier. The MammoMARK MMK1001 is a Bowtie-shaped biopsy site identifier built from titanium and bovine collagen. Clinicians deploy it during breast biopsy to mark the cavity clearly. Because the collagen carrier expands, it clings to surrounding tissue and reduces the chance of migration.
This marker stays visible under ultrasound for up to 30 days. In addition, it appears under mammography and MRI, so follow-up imaging stays consistent. The manufacturer compatibility sheet lists MMK1001 as a 9G, back-of-probe marker with a 20 mm aperture. Therefore verify gauge and applicator with your Mammotome representative before ordering.

MammoMARK MMK1001 Features
The MammoMARK MMK1001 pairs a titanium marker with a rapidly expanding bovine collagen carrier. As a result, it supports clear marking, migration control, and multimodality visibility.
The MammoMARK MMK1001 uses a bovine collagen carrier on a titanium marker. On deployment, the collagen expands rapidly by 300%. As a result, the marker fills the cavity and resists migration.
In addition, certain studies suggest collagen can decrease bleeding by absorbing surrounding fluid. It may also provide a hemostatic effect through direct pressure on the cavity walls. Moreover, the increased surface area improves ultrasound visibility during deployment.
The Bowtie shape is designed to alleviate displacement during surgical excision. Furthermore, it enhances visibility and eases locating the site. Because of its profile, radiologists can identify the marker from multiple angles.
Under ultrasound, the marker stays visible for up to 30 days. It also appears under mammography about 60 seconds after deployment. In addition, it shows on MRI, including nonfat saturation Bowtie sequences.
See how the MammoMARK MMK1001 compares with a generic breast biopsy marker.
The Bowtie profile and expanding collagen carrier work together to keep the marker in place. Therefore surgical teams can locate the site with confidence during excision.

Clinical Applications
The MammoMARK MMK1001 supports several breast biopsy pathways. Below are common clinical scenarios.
Deploy the marker through a MammoMARK applicator during a stereotactic procedure. As a result, the cavity stays clearly identified.
MammoMARK applicators support MR-guided deployment. Therefore teams can mark lesions found on breast MRI.
The marker stays visible under ultrasound for up to 30 days. In addition, this supports short-term follow-up and localization.
Collagen may absorb surrounding fluid and reduce bleeding. Moreover, it can add a hemostatic effect through direct pressure.
Rapid 300% collagen expansion helps anchor the marker. Because of this, the chance of migration drops.
The marker appears under ultrasound, mammography, and MRI. Therefore imaging stays consistent across modalities.
