Yes, use the Iceross with the matrex long enough to be proximal to the electrode site. Pull
the liner on without any proximal distraction. Mark the electrode site. Use a 3/4 punch to
make the hole for the electrode. It will expand for either type of Otto Bock electrode. I
usually use the round one for this kind of suspension. Terry Supsan, CPO
