CONTROL
MATTERS

Barrigel gives you effective and proven control over the shape and placement of the implant.3* Physician-controlled coverage allows you to create space with consistency and confidence.1

“Barrigel completely removes the element of uncertainty from rectal spacing. It allows me to carefully plan and adjust the placement of the gel and provide my patients with the best chance to eliminate rectal toxicity. It has already made a huge difference to my prostate cancer patients!”

“In my experience, Barrigel is safer due to the ability to control its location and alter its placement during the procedure. This allows us to have a more uniform result in tougher cases where another procedure could result in delay of care.”

“My practice began using Barrigel because it allows me to take the time necessary to create a symmetrical implant that allows for protection of the entire rectum. Whether my patient is receiving IMRT, SBRT, or brachytherapy, Barrigel allows me to protect healthy tissue from unwanted radiation exposure and reduce side effects.”

SAFETY
MATTERS

SAFETY
MATTERS

For improved outcomes
and reduced risk

Barrigel is the only rectal spacer with
proven reduction
of acute grade 2+ GI toxicity compared to control, leading to
fewer side effects.1

Throughout the Barrigel Pivotal Trial, there were
zero
Barrigel-related
adverse events.1

SYMMETRY MATTERS

SYMMETRY
MATTERS

Sculpt consistent, even coverage for optimal protection. In the Barrigel Pivotal Trial, >95% of implants were centered on the midline.2
>95%

STABILITY MATTERS

STABILITY
MATTERS

Barrigel maintains space throughout the course of treatment. Even as Barrigel resorbs, the space created remains stable for 3 months, on average, with no implant migration.1
IMMEDIATELY POST-INJECTION
3 MONTHS POST-INJECTION
