Used in first aid to remove metal objects from the body, such as bullets, splinters, nails, metal chips & pins. A common use for the GetMet is in the removal of material used in the osteosynthesis of fractures, such as metallic plates, screws, Kirschner pins and Cerclage wires
What Our Surgeons Say?
“GetMet has been highly effective in reducing the time needed to locate and remove implanted metalwork in theatre. It lowers reliance on X-ray imaging, improving resource efficiency and reducing costs for the Trust. We are further assessing patient benefits, including reduced surgical trauma, greater procedural precision, and lower X-ray exposure for both patients and surgical teams”
