Holster Not On Charger SOLID = Sufficient charge available to complete one or more procedure(s). FLASH = Sufficient charge available to complete one procedure. SOLID = Insufficient charge. Return holster to charging base.

When charging, set the holster on top of this guide for quick, easy reference.

C.

Note: Automatic initialization will begin.

If the holster is left undisturbed for 10 minutes after loading a probe, the holster will enter a sleep mode to conserve battery charge. During sleep mode, the biopsy and battery indicator lights will turn off and the buttons will be inactive. Once the holster is moved, the device will wake from sleep mode. Any time the holster is motionless for one hour with or without a probe attached, the holster will go into a deep sleep mode. Place the holster into the charging base without the probe and remove from the charging base to turn the holster back on.

2 Priming the Probe

Interrupting the Biopsy Cycle

Interrupt a biopsy cycle (as described below) leaving the aperture

A.

exposed (A). Use a sterile syringe to insert 0.5cc of saline into the

needle aperture (approximately 7-10 drops). Press the active biopsy

button to advance the cutter.

Push the active biopsy button once to initiate the biopsy cycle. To

interrupt the biopsy cycle, push the active biopsy button again when

the cutter is retracting from position 1 to 3 (B) or when the cutter is advancing from position 3 to 2. The cutter will retract to position 3,

4 Tissue Sampling Procedure

Introduce the probe through the incision and position the probe tip in the target area with the tip past the lesion. Imaging guidance should be

A.

used as appropriate. Push the active biopsy button on the holster once to

acquire a tissue sample. The biopsy cycle proceeds: a vacuum is created,

the inner cutter of the probe is retracted, tissue is drawn into the aperture,

and the cutter rotates and translates forward, cutting tissue (A).

When the cutter reaches the distal end of the aperture, the vacuum will

transport the sample to the specimen collection cup.
