    摘要: A method for detecting abnormal tissue in a region of healthy tissue, comprising: a) making a first measurement of ultrasound backscattered from the region; b) heating the region, at least after the first measurement; c) making one or more additional measurements of ultrasound backscattered from the region after some or all of the heating; and d) analyzing the measurements to detect the abnormal tissue by finding one or both of differences in changes in temperature and differences in thermal expansion, caused by the heating, between the abnormal tissue and the healthy tissue.

    摘要: The invention relates to a dermal punch (10), comprising a handle (12) having an end section (14) in the distal region, from which section a tubular punch element (16) comprising a blade (18) at the end extends. In order to ensure that injuries are prevented, a protective element (20) is provided, which can be moved axially along the end section (14) and in at least one second position for the use of the punch element is offset toward the back with respect to the blade (18), and in a third position protrudes over the blade after the dermal punch (10) has been used and is latched to the end section such that uncontrolled axial movement of the protective element is suppressed.

    摘要: An electro-mechanical surgical device includes: a housing; an elongated shaft extending from the housing, a distal end of the elongated shaft being detachably coupleable to a surgical instrument; at least two axially rotatable drive shafts disposed within the elongated shaft, a distal end of each of the drive shafts being configured to couple with the surgical instrument; a steering cable arrangement, the steering cable arrangement being configured to steer the distal end of the elongated shaft; and a motor system disposed within the housing, the motor system being configured to drive the drive shafts and the steering cable arrangement. A control system may be provided for controlling the motor system. A remote control unit may also be provided for controlling the motor system via the control system. Sensors such as optical or Hall-effect devices, may be provided for determining the position of the elements of the surgical instrument based on the detached rotation of the drive shafts. A memory unit stores a plurality of operating programs or algorithms, each corresponding to a type of surgical instrument attachable to the electro-mechanical surgical device. The control system reads or selects from the plurality of operating programs or algorithms, the operating program or algorithm corresponding to the type of surgical instrument attached to the electro-mechanical surgical device.

    摘要: A biopsy system (10) comprises a control module (12), a localization assembly (15), a biopsy device (14), and a targeting cube (104). The biopsy device comprises a holster portion (32) and a probe (91). The probe and/or other associated components are configured to selectively couple with a targeting cube that is configured to selectively couple with a grid plate (96) having apertures (130) for receiving the targeting cube. The targeting cube comprises a body defined by faces (112,114,116). The targeting cube further comprises guide holes (106,108,110) that originate and terminate at the faces and pass through the body of the targeting cube to provide passageways through the targeting cube. The intersections of the faces of the targeting cube comprise edges that are comprised of elastomeric material. The elastomeric edges allow for compression and may thus provide a secure fit with a wide range of grid plates having openings of various shapes and sizes.

    摘要: A biopsy system (10) comprises a biopsy device (14) and a localization grid plate (96,300), which is configured to localize part of a patient and defines a plurality of round openings (306). A probe (91) of the biopsy device and/or other associated other components may be inserted through a selected one of the openings. The grid plate may thus guide the probe and/or other components as such components are inserted into the localized part of the patient; and may further support the probe and/or other components after insertion. The grid plate may thus be used without a targeting cube (104) or other inserted guide. Alternatively, the openings of the grid plate may be configured to receive a targeting guide having a cylindraceous body. The guide body may define passageways for inserting a probe or other components, and may be rotatable to position the passageways to selectively define an insertion axis for the probe.
