The Autotome RX cannulating sphincterotome provides controlled steerability for positioning to facilitate sphincterotomy. The Autotome RX Cannulating Sphincterotome has a center-lumen design* that is the result of DirecTip Technology. The center lumen allows the guidewire to extend from the center of the sphincterotome to aid in positioning and facilitates wire guided cannulation. Wire guided cannulation may help reduce the risk of post-ERCP pancreatitis compared with the standard contrast injection method. DirecTip technology enables the guidewire and contrast to be directed into the duct from the center of the tip, helping the physician inject contrast into the intended duct. The tapered tip enables placement into small or tight orifices.
