Zusammenfassung:A template grid which attaches to an ultrasound stepper of a transrectal ultrasound unit providing transperineal guidance and support through adjustable angle apertures allowing for accurate targeting of a medical implant such as a needle to its intended target such as for purposes of perirectal spacer placement. The rotational apertures allow for free adjustable changes in the trajectory of a medial implant such as a needle to its intended target while providing stability and support to the medical implant itself. The template grid, in addition, contains fixed apertures for placement of a medical implant such as a needle into the substance of the prostate gland positioned to avoid inadvertent passage through the urethra and rectum.
