Preparing for a Biopsy

Preparing the Biopsy Guide Attachment

Convex, Sector and Linear probes have optional biopsy guide
attachments for each probe. The guide consists of a
non-disposable bracket to attach to the probe, disposable
needle clip to attach to the bracket, sheath, gel (sterile gel if
necessary) and disposable needle barrels.
The disposable needle barrels are available for a variety of
needle sizes.
Please refer to the manufacturer's instructions included in the
CAUTION
biopsy kit.
Fixed Needle Guide Assembly
Identify the appropriate biopsy guide bracket by matching the
label on the bracket with the probe to be used.
Orient the bracket so that the needle clip attachment will be on
the same side as the probe orientation mark (ridge).
Figure 15–17. Probe/Bracket Alignment
Attach the biopsy bracket to the probe by sliding the bracket
over the end of the probe until it clicks or locks in place.
