A disk in the Splash M-Knife helps hooking up the tissue for improved safety in addition to making cutting convenient.

The water-jet function of the device enables additional injection without changing it. Invented in Japan a decade ago, ESD is known for its clinical and financial benefits.

Pentax Medical will demonstrate Splash M-Knife at the 89th Annual Meeting of the Japan Gastroenterological Endoscopy Society (JGES) Congress that will take place in Nagoya from 29-31 May.
