Abstract

A biopsy system comprises an introducer, a biopsy device having a needle, and a marker applier. The introducer may include a closed distal tip, a lateral aperture, a proximally facing interior wall, and a ramp that guides the closed distal end of a marker applier up and into abutment with the wall as the applier is fed into the introducer. The needle of the biopsy device includes a blunt distal end and features providing clearance for the ramp as the blunt distal end is brought into abutment with the wall when the needle is fed into the introducer. The introducer may alternatively include an open distal end having resiliently biased leaves that bear against an inserted biopsy device needle. In some other versions, a fin projects laterally from the closed distal end of a marker applier, spacing the distal end away from a sidewall region of the introducer cannula.

Description

[0001] This application has entered the Chinese national phase with the filing date of June 7, 2012, the international application number: PCT / US2012 / 041188, the national application number: 201280029965.2, and the name "Introducer for Biopsy Device" divisional application of the international application. technical field [0002] The present application relates to a biopsy system and an introducer for a biopsy device. Background technique [0003] Biopsy samples have been obtained in a variety of ways during different medical procedures using a variety of devices. The biopsy device can be used under simple visual guidance, palpatory guidance, stereotaxic guidance, ultrasound guidance, MRI guidance, PEM guidance, BSGI guidance, or another guidance. For example, some biopsy devices can be fully operable by a user with one hand and with a single insertion to capture one or more biopsy samples from a patient. Additionally, some biopsy devices may be tethered to the vacuum mod...
