Puncture and Biopsy Facilities
Puncture and biopsy are possible with Types 8560 and 8660. The puncture attachments are
illustrated in the following pages with a brief description of their use and operating
instructions.
Puncture Guide Attachment UA1239
The puncture guide attachment UA1239 (see Fig. 3.) is designed for percutaneous puncture
and biopsy of superficial lesions when used with Types 8560 and 8660 (see Fig. 4.). It
consists of a bracket for attaching the needle holder to the transducer, and the needle holder
itself which features a three winged shaft that can be rotated in the barrel of the needle
holder to accommodate different sized needles. There is also a screw for adjusting the angle
of penetration. The needle guide will accept 0.9mm (20 Gauge), 1.3mm (18 Gauge) and
2.1mm (14 Gauge) needles.

from you.
2. Hold the UA1239 in your right hand with the adjusting screw facing towards you, the
two ‘legs’ pointing to the left and the moveable swing arm pointing down.
3. Slide the two legs down over the transducer into the recessed grooves.
4. Lock the swing arm into position under the bottom of the transducer. An audible
"click" indicates when the needle guide is securely attached.
WARNING!
It is essential for the patient’s safety that only the correct puncture attachment is used with
Types 8560 and 8660. Never use unauthorized combinations of transducers and puncture
attachments or other manufacturers’ puncture attachments.
