With this new device, the diagnosis of uterine cancer will become much easier and less painful for the patient. Unlike other forms of endometrial biopsy that incorporate suction or cutting to remove multiple pieces of uterine tissue, the Tao Brush uses soft bristles to procure an adequate representative sample of the patient’s endometrium, facilitating early detection of abnormal cells.
