LifeLike BioTissue Oncology Model Made to Order

Biopsy Breast Model for Ultrasound and Tumour Dissection Training

The LifeLike Biopsy Breast Model is an ultrasoundable procedural trainer designed for the acquisition, retention and development of general, vascular and oncology surgical skills.

Beneath the simulated dermis is a soft-tissue structure containing six small veins positioned at varying depths, two soft cancer nodules, two hard cancer nodules and one cyst. These structures can be located using ultrasound or other imaging techniques before practising careful dissection and removal.

Ultrasoundable Four cancer nodules One embedded cyst Six embedded veins

From Ultrasound Identification to Surgical Dissection

The model combines imaging targets with embedded vascular structures, allowing trainees to develop a complete procedural workflow. Learners can first locate the nodules and cyst, assess their position in relation to the surrounding vessels and then plan a safe dissection pathway.

During dissection exercises, the objective is to identify and remove the selected target while avoiding unnecessary damage to adjacent vessels and neural structures. This supports the development of accurate tissue handling, anatomical awareness and oncological surgical technique in a controlled simulation environment.

Embedded Model Structures

1
Dermis Layer A simulated dermal surface positioned above the internal soft tissue.
6
Small Veins Six simulated veins are embedded at different depths throughout the tissue.
4
Cancer Nodules Two soft and two hard simulated cancer nodules provide varied imaging targets.
1
Cyst One simulated cyst is embedded within the model for location and removal exercises.

Ultrasound and Imaging Skills

  • Ultrasound probe handling and orientation
  • Systematic scanning technique
  • Identification of embedded targets
  • Recognition of structures at different depths
  • Assessment of targets in relation to nearby vessels
  • Image interpretation and procedural planning
  • Coordination between imaging and tissue location

Surgical Skills

  • Incision and access planning
  • Careful soft-tissue dissection
  • Cancer nodule location and removal
  • Cyst location and removal
  • Vessel identification and preservation
  • Protection of adjacent structures
  • Fine surgical instrument control

Realistic Oncology Skills Development

The combination of soft and hard nodules enables learners to work with targets that have different simulated properties. The six embedded veins also introduce an important vessel-preservation element that would not be present in a simple homogeneous biopsy pad.

This makes the model suitable for training sessions that bring together imaging, target localisation, operative planning, dissection and removal within a single simulated platform.

Tissue Features

  • Ultrasoundable construction
  • Easy to handle and maintain
  • Ready for use in different training environments
  • Nontoxic
  • Biohazard-free
  • Odourless

Suitable For

  • Breast and oncology surgical trainees
  • General surgery trainees
  • Vascular surgery trainees
  • Ultrasound and imaging trainees
  • Radiology and procedural imaging education
  • Teaching hospitals
  • Universities and simulation centres

Suggested Training Workflow

1
Scan Conduct a systematic ultrasound or imaging examination of the model.
2
Locate Identify a nodule or cyst and assess its depth and orientation.
3
Plan Determine an approach that protects surrounding vessels and structures.
4
Dissect Practise controlled access, dissection and target removal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the model be scanned using ultrasound?

Yes. LifeLike specifies the Biopsy Breast Model as ultrasoundable and suitable for ultrasound and imaging training.

How many targets are embedded in the model?

There are five targets in total: two soft cancer nodules, two hard cancer nodules and one cyst.

Does the model contain simulated blood vessels?

Yes. Six small simulated veins are embedded at varying depths beneath the dermis layer.

What is the purpose of the embedded veins?

The veins introduce an additional challenge during imaging and dissection. Learners can practise locating and removing a target while avoiding damage to adjacent vascular structures.

Can the model be used for tumour dissection practice?

Yes. It is specifically designed for locating and dissecting simulated cancer nodules while protecting adjacent vessels and structures.

Is the model supplied from stock?

The manufacturer lists the Biopsy Breast Model as made to order. Please allow for an appropriate production lead time.

Is an ultrasound scanner included?

No ultrasound system is listed as part of the model. Imaging equipment and surgical instruments should be supplied separately unless included in your quotation.

Important: This product is intended solely for medical education, ultrasound training, surgical simulation and demonstration. It is not intended for clinical diagnosis or use on patients.
