13-14 Probes and Biopsy
DANGER:
Fail to match the guidezone displayed to the guide may cause
the needle to track a path outside the zone.
It is extremely important that when using the adjustable angle
biopsy guides, the angle displayed on the screen matches the
angle set on the guide, otherwise the needle will not follow the
displayed guidezone which could result in repeated biopsies
or patient injury.
13.2.2 Needle-guided
Brackets
A needle-guided bracket is available for purchase as an optional accessory; it is used in
combination with the probe. Some of the probes have matched needle-guided bracket
and needles. To order needle-guided brackets, contact MINDRAY Customer Service
Department or sales representative.
For biopsy or treatment, ultrasound-guided biopsy procedures can be performed using
the probe in combination with a needle-guided bracket (optional accessory) and a biopsy
needle (provided by the user).
