neoprobeTM GDS Operation Manual
1. INTRODUCTION
The neoprobe
TM
Gamma Detection System console, with BLUETOOTH® wireless technology, detects presence of gamma rays emitted from radioactive isotopes in body organs or tissue. System provides an increasing or decreasing sound and visual indicator (Count Bar) that vary in pitch as level of gamma radioactivity increases or decreases.
Detecting gamma radiation with a hand-held probe is based on inverse square law of physics which allows detection of radiation emitted from a small source. Placing probe close to radioactive site increases number of counts detected and localization occurs. Excision of lesion is then performed using standard surgical technique.
Gamma detection protocols that control use of large, highly collimated scintillation detectors may require modifications when used in conjunction with hand-held gamma probe.
NOTE: User is responsible to determine suitability of product for use in any surgical procedure. Contact Devicor regarding questions for intended use of product.
CAUTION: United States Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on order of a physician.
CAUTION: Read Warnings, Cautions and Notes section before operating product.
CAUTION: Clean and sterilize probe and collimator before use; use sterile surgical probe cover if not
sterilized. NOTE: Save packing material to return product for service. NOTE: Accessories packaged separately from control unit (console) during shipment. Verify you have received all
items ordered.

DESCRIPTION
Check data when these functions are not active.
Background Count
In Dynamic Pitch Mode: a baseline value in counts per second stored in console and used as threshold to activate sound
In Binary Pitch Mode: baseline value in counts per second stored in console for comparison to Target Count determines if difference in radioactivity between Background Tissue and Target Tissue is statistically significant.
Compton Scattering
Radioactive noise at an energy level lower than photo peak of radioactive material.
Ratio Readout
A value indicating how likely it is that Target Tissue is identified (Target Count divided by Background Count).
Dynamic Pitch
Default mode of operation: baseline value measured in counts per second that is stored in console, and used as threshold at which sound is activated.
Binary Pitch
Optional mode of operation: baseline value measured in counts per second that is stored in console for comparison to Target Count determines if difference in radioactivity between Background Tissue and Target Tissue is statistically significant.
Scan/Scanning
Moving probe across Target Area to locate highest radiation reading.
Target Area
Area of interest selected by physician during a procedure
Target Check
Binary Pitch Mode Only: quick check of level of radioactivity measured in counts per second detected by a probe held stationary for 2 seconds over target tissue; more accurate than Count Rate. Target Check function does not display a calculated Ratio Readout.
Target Count
Number indicating level of radioactivity detected by probe when held stationary for 6 seconds over Target Tissue; more accurate than Target Check. Target Count activates and displays a calculated Ratio Readout; 6 seconds in Binary Pitch mode; 1 to 6 seconds in Dynamic Pitch mode.

6. POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS
Product is used transcutaneously and intracutaneously to detect radioactive emissions from body tissues or organs where radiopharmaceuticals are administered. Most commonly administered isotopes are listed in following table, all are detected by this product.
NOTE: A variety of radiopharmaceuticals are available. It is responsibility of user to determine suitability and clinical utility of chosen radiopharmaceutical or radiolabeled compound, and protocol for administering drug and using probe intracutaneously.
External application
External gamma detection of administered isotope provides noninvasive means of gathering important physiological and/or anatomical information. Some examples are: detection and localization of blood clot formulation using
111
In labeled platelets: evaluation of thyroid function by measuring radioactive iodine uptake; evaluation of skin or
skeletal muscle blood flow; diagnosis of testicular torsion using
99m
Tc; intracutaneous scanning for localization of
lymphatic tissue.
Intraoperative localization of lymphatic tissue
Lymphoscintigraphy is a common medical procedure employed to define lymphatic flow from a site of injection through lymphatic tissue. Hand-held gamma probes may be useful in assisting a surgeon in localization of regional lymph node basins draining a lesion site. This allows surgeons to identify areas within lymphatics where a biopsy of tissue may be taken to determine histological status of lymph tissue.

Minimally invasive radioguided parathyroidectomy
A preoperative
99m
Tc -Sestamibi scan may be used on patients with primary hyperparathyroidism to localize target parathyroid adenoma and enable limited exploration as an alternative to complete bilateral surgical exploration. Hand-held gamma probes may be useful in assisting surgeons in intraoperative localization of target adenomas. Gamma probes can be used to detect and localize increased uptake of
99m
Tc -99m-Sestabibi by hyperparathyroid
gland.
Evaluation of ischemic bowel
Strangulation of gut may cause ischemic bowel. Surgeon must revascularize it and determine its viability as part of surgical protocol. Gamma probes can be used to detect intra-arterial distribution of means of determining if gut is reperfused. Other tracers, such as
99m
Tc labeled DTPA for perfusion or
99m
Tc labeled red blood cells as a
9999mTc
pyrophosphate for muscle infarction, may require investigational drug status for this application.
Perfusion of anastomosis-assessment of compromised blood flow
When a surgeon creates an anastomosis, it must be determined that each side of anastomosis has adequate perfusion; otherwise, anastomosis may fail, and leakage may occur. A high degree of morbidity is associated with this failure. Gamma probes provide opportunity to assess perfusion before and after creating anastomosis. Intravenous administration of stannous pyrophosphate followed by
99m
Tc automatically labels red blood cells in vivo. Blood flow to anastomotic ends and across anastomotic juncture can be verified with radiolabeled labeled blood cells detected by gamma probe.
Intraoperative localization of osteoid osteomas
Osteoid osteoma is a small, but painful, benign bone lesion. Surgical excision is curative. Modern radiographic techniques externally image lesion with
99m
Tc labeled pyrophosphate. However, because of their size (rarely greater than 1 centimeter) and location within cortical bone, it may be difficult for surgeon to localize lesion intraoperatively. A gamma probe may be useful in localizing a lesion site intraoperatively. Additionally, checking high concentration of radioactive isotope in removed bone fragments provides evidence that nidus is being excised.
7. Cleaning & Disinfection
Follow precautions established in your facility when handling any medical device that has been in contact with body fluids, tissues, or blood (intraoperative). All medical devices used intraoperatively must be cleaned, decontaminated or sterilized before reuse.

System Accuracy Check
Following procedure is used to confirm performance of system components is stable and consistent. NOTE: Individuals from Nuclear Medicine department familiar with radioactive emissions and measuring equipment
should perform System Accuracy Check below. Ensure that source strength, distance from probe to source, and stray radiation from other sources do not adversely affect measurements taken. Ensure distance between probe and radiation source does not change during System Accuracy Check.
Product design includes solid-state sensor and digital electronics technology that does not require periodic adjustments to compensate for gain “drift” commonly associated with analog photomultiplier electron tube designs. Use and maintain product as described in this manual. Product is not expected to exhibit any performance drift over prescribed lifecycle.
Before performing quality checks, make sure probe with BLUETOOTH® wireless technology is clean and free from sources of radioactive contamination. All other sources of radiation emission must be removed from proximity of probe during procedure. Shielding materials should be positioned to minimize effects of scatter and fluorescence peaks from radioactive source. Use a 57Co radioactive source with known strength between 5 and 25 micro Curies (185 to 925 kBq) during these procedures. Results will differ if you use another radionuclide, source strength, or source location.
NOTE: Readings will differ between probe types. See battery housing of Wireless Probes for or “
” marking.
1) Wireless Probe with ” marking, or ” with software version 5.02 or earlier Photo Peak Efficiency
Only conduct this test with BLUETOOTH® wireless technology enabled probes.
1. Turn on and link a probe to console.
2. Set to Dynamic Pitch mode with
99m
Tc radionuclide selected.
3. Place 57Co radioactive source 20mm in front of probe (or use P-405 Check Source Fixture). Place probe and
source in air above a table or other surface to minimize effects of scattered radiation on measurement.
4. On console, press and hold Target Count Button to perform a 10 second count. Make sure probe does not
move during this process. Record this value.
5. Press and hold Radionuclide Selection button on back of console to select Open Window (v5.01 and later)*.
6. On console, press and hold Target Count Button to perform a 10 second count. Make sure probe does not
move during this process. Record this value.
7. Divide
99m
Tc count from step 4 by open window count from step 6. Result should be greater than 40%.
8. Count-rate ratio determined by this procedure should be stable and consistent over time within expected +/-
10% statistical variation of radioactive emissions during recommended counting intervals.
*NOTE: v4.01 or earlier software does not have Open Window feature, select
125
I to perform this procedure.
2) Cabled Probe, or Wireless Probe with ” and software version 6.01 or later Photo Peak Efficiency
1. Set unit to Dynamic Pitch mode and press Radionuclide selection button on back of unit to select 57Co
radionuclide.
2. Place 57Co radioactive source 20mm in front of probe (or use P-405 Check Source Fixture). Place probe and
source in air above a table or other surface to minimize effects of scattered radiation on measurement.
3. Press and hold Target Count Button to perform a 10 second count. Record this value. Make sure probe does
not move during this count.

4. Press Radionuclide Selection button on back of unit to select an open energy window (select
125
I Radionuclide for units with v2.01 or earlier software or press and hold Radionuclide button for an open energy window in units with v2.02 or later software.)
5. Press and hold Target Count Button to perform a 10 second count. Record this value. Divide 57Co 10-second
count by open energy window 10-second count. Results should be greater than 50%.
6. Count-rate ratio determined by this procedure should be stable and consistent over time within expected
+10% statistical variations of radioactive emissions during recommended counting intervals.
If result indicates variation from specified amount, and indicates performance has changed or is not stable, check for proper setup with desired Radionuclide selected, and that all external factors (source, strength, source distance, stray radiation, etc.) have been determined and controlled. Contact Devicor Medical Products, Inc. for technical assistance.
Performance Check
Perform periodic performance checks to assure proper performance of product. No calibration or adjustments are needed. Regardless of probe type or radioisotope in use, this performance check is a simplified procedure that will check proper performance of system with either probe type.
Performance check procedure
This performance check should be performed before each use.
1. Place probe near source of radioactivity, i.e., injection site on patient. Verify that registered counts are greater
than zero.
2. Position probe several feet away from source of radioactivity. Verify that registered count level decreases from
source count level.
If performance check does not meet conditions of Steps #1 and #2 above, consider following:
If probe fails to detect measureable levels of gamma emissions when positioned over source of radioactivity,
check that power is on and that correct radionuclide is selected. For low counts, run system diagnostic checks to test all visual indicators are functioning properly. Contact Devicor Medical Products, Inc. for technical assistance if problem continues.
If console displays error codes “error 2” through “error 6when powered on, or anytime during operation,
cycle power to console. Contact Devicor Medical Products, Inc. if error codes continue.
If console indicates high level of gamma emissions when probe is pointed away from radioactive source, and no
other source of radiation is known, move to another room and repeat low count performance check.
o If counts go down, there must be another source of radioactivity in room or patient source is too high. o If counts do not go down, probe may be contaminated and should be cleaned with a radioactive
decontaminant solution (e.g., Radiacwash®), or probe has internal mechanical damage.
