WARNING:
4. Sterilize the transducer and the biopsy adapter before
and after performing a biopsy procedure. Failure to do so
may result in the transducer or adapter becoming source
of infection.
5. Even though the biopsy target and the biopsy needle are
identified on the image, a biopsy procedure may not
always be successful due to dispersion of the ultrasound
beam (especially for a tubule or a very small structure).
To avoid failure of the biopsy procedure, observe the
following precautions.
(a) Do not rely solely on the echo of the needle tip on the
image. Pay careful attention to the target, which
should shift slightly when the biopsy needle comes
into contact with it.
(b) Perform biopsy only after confirming the size of the
target and assessing the likelihood of success of the
procedure.
