TX MicroTip for Soft Tissue

The Tenex Health TX® System with TX MicroTip offer a safe, single procedure for tendinopathy and calcification in tendons and takes minutes to perform under local anesthesia. Used with ultrasound guidance, Tenex Health TX allows physicians to precisely cut and remove diseased tendons percutaneously through a mini incision. An ultrasonic cutting action spares healthy soft tissue6 – based on technology used in phacoemulsification. Tenex Health TX is FDA cleared. Tenex technology is supported by more than 90 independent, peer-reviewed studies and articles in medical journals, showing ≥ 85% clinical efficacy in soft tissue.1 Over 200,000 patients have been treated.
