What is it indicated for?

The MOLLI Marker is intended to be placed percutaneously in soft tissue to temporarily mark a surgical site intended for

surgical removal. The MOLLI Marker can only be implanted for less than 30 days. Using imaging guidance (such as

ultrasound or radiography) or aided by non-imaging guidance (MOLLI 2 System), the MOLLI Marker is located and

surgically removed with the target tissue.

The MOLLI 2 System is intended only for the non-imaging detection and localization of the MOLLI Marker that has been

implanted in a site intended for surgical removal.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
