Butterfly HydroMARK Marker Overview
Authorized Mammotome HydroMARK supplier. The Butterfly HydroMARK marker is a titanium and hydrogel breast biopsy site marker, part number 4010-01-11-T4. It uses exclusive hydrogel technology to provide long-term ultrasound visibility. Because the marker stays visible, your team can track the biopsy site with confidence. In addition, it appears clearly under mammography and MRI, so the marker supports a fully multimodality workflow.
The butterfly shape adds practical value during the biopsy. Its wings enter the cavity first and cling to the surrounding breast tissue, which helps reduce displacement during surgical excision. As a result, clinicians gain a more distinguishable target and easier localization. Furthermore, the marker is indicated for axillary lymph nodes and breast tissue, and it deploys through applicators for ultrasound and MR-guided biopsies.

Butterfly HydroMARK Marker Features
This marker combines a titanium core with an exclusive hydrogel carrier. Therefore it stays visible long after deployment and remains easy to locate across imaging modalities.
The butterfly shape is engineered for stability inside the biopsy cavity. Its wings enter the cavity first and cling to the surrounding breast tissue. As a result, the marker resists displacement during surgical excision. In addition, the wing geometry improves distinguishability under mammography, so radiologists can confirm the site quickly.
Exclusive hydrogel technology gives this marker long-term ultrasound visibility of up to 12 months, even after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Under ultrasound, it shows a unique anechoic appearance that stands out as a clear localization target. Furthermore, the marker is easily seen under MRI during a T2 sequence. Because it works across ultrasound, mammography, and MRI, one marker supports the full care pathway.

Enhanced ultrasound visibility supports intraoperative localizations. Because the target stays clear, surgeons can find the site with less reliance on wire placement.

Clinical Applications
The Butterfly HydroMARK marker fits several points in the breast care journey. Here are common clinical scenarios where it adds value.
Deploy the marker during an ultrasound-guided biopsy. Because it is anechoic, it gives a clear target on the screen.
Use MR-guided applicators when the lesion is best seen on MRI. The marker then remains visible on later T2 sequences.
Mark axillary lymph nodes with confidence. The marker is indicated for both lymph nodes and breast tissue.
Track the biopsy site for up to 12 months. As a result, follow-up imaging stays reliable over time.
Support surgical localization with enhanced ultrasound visibility. This can reduce reliance on wire placement.
Follow the site through neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Visibility persists for up to 12 months even after treatment.
Butterfly HydroMARK Marker Workflow
This marker moves through a clear clinical pathway, from selection to surgical localization. Each step below shows how it fits your breast biopsy routine.
Choose the butterfly shape when you want a stable, distinguishable marker. Titanium and hydrogel support long-term visibility, so it suits both immediate confirmation and follow-up.
Deploy through applicators for ultrasound or MR-guided biopsies. The wings enter the cavity first and cling to the surrounding breast tissue, which helps hold the marker in place.
Confirm the site across modalities. The marker shows a unique anechoic appearance on ultrasound, clear signal on MRI T2, and strong distinguishability on mammography.
Monitor the biopsy site over time. Because ultrasound visibility lasts up to 12 months, follow-up scans stay dependable, even after neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
Support the surgical team at excision. Enhanced ultrasound visibility aids intraoperative localization and helps reduce displacement during the procedure.
