Abstract
An intracorporeal marker delivery system includes a delivery device including a delivery cannula and a plunger. The delivery cannula has an inner lumen, a distal tip, and a discharge opening in communication with the inner lumen. A radiographically detectable marker having a fibrous-body and a radiographically detectable marker element coupled to the fibrous body is disposed within and pushable by the plunger through the inner lumen of the delivery cannula. An MRI detectable distal tip plug is disposed at least in part within a distal portion of the inner lumen distal to the radiographically detectable marker, and configured to partially occlude the discharge opening in the delivery cannula. An ultrasound detectable short term marker is interposed between the radiographically detectable marker and the MRI detectable distal tip plug in the inner lumen of the delivery cannula.
