Bard biopsy guns, or biopsy devices, are medical instruments used for obtaining tissue samples from the body for diagnostic purposes. These devices are commonly used in various medical specialties, including radiology, oncology, and gastroenterology. The Bard biopsy guns are produced by C. R. Bard, a subsidiary of Becton, Dickinson, and Company (BD), a global medical technology company. Key features of Bard biopsy guns may include: Spring-Loaded Mechanism: Many biopsy guns operate using a spring-loaded mechanism that allows for the quick and precise deployment of the biopsy needle to obtain tissue samples. Single-Use or Disposable Models: Some Bard biopsy guns are designed for single-use or disposable use. This helps reduce the risk of cross-contamination between patients. Various Needle Sizes: Biopsy guns may come with a variety of needle sizes to accommodate different medical procedures and types of tissue sampling. Trigger Mechanism: A trigger mechanism is often employed to control the firing of the biopsy needle, allowing for accurate placement and retrieval of tissue samples. Compatible with Imaging Modalities: Biopsy guns are often used in conjunction with imaging modalities such as ultrasound, CT scans, or fluoroscopy to guide the needle to the target tissue.
