What is a ultrasonic aspirator?
Abstract. Purpose: The Sonopet Ultrasonic Aspirator is a surgical tool that uses low-frequency ultrasonic vibrations to fragment tissue while simultaneously irrigating and aspirating the surgical field.
What is CUSA machine?
Ultrasonic cavitation device is a surgical device using low frequency ultrasound energy to dissect or fragment tissues with low fiber content. Neurosurgeons use a cavitron ultrasonic surgical aspirator (CUSA) to “cut out” brain tumors without adversely affecting the surrounding healthy tissue.
What is the meaning of CUSA?

What is CUSA surgery?
December 22, 2015. Neurosurgery. CUSA is the acronym for cavitronic ultrasonic surgical aspirator. This is an amazing device that is used in tumor surgery in a select number of hospitals around the world, and even fewer veterinary hospitals! The CUSA uses ultrasonic frequencies to basically emulsify the target tissues.
What is Sonopet ablation?
SONOPET Ultrasonic Aspirator masters fine bone and hard tissue dissection by coupling longitudinal vibration with torsional oscillation. This patented innovation and ergonomic design let you emulsify bone with a high level of precision.
What is a CUSA used for in surgery?
The Columbus Neurosurgery Department now routinely uses a cavitron ultrasonic surgical aspirator (CUSA). The CUSA simultaneously fragments pathologic tissue while providing suction and irrigation. It distinguishes pathologic tissue from normal tissue, thus preventing damage to healthy parenchyma.
