    Abstract: A compression plate includes a body part having a box shape with an open top, and a guide member that guides an ultrasound probe along a scanning direction of the ultrasound probe. The guide member includes a first guide part that guides the ultrasound probe along a first scanning path, and a second guide part that guides the ultrasound probe along a second scanning path. The first guide part and the second guide part are disposed such that effective image regions of the ultrasound probe partially overlap each other in a case in which scanning using the ultrasound probe is performed along the first scanning path and the second scanning path.

    Abstract: A biopsy system performs a biopsy of a breast while capturing an ultrasound image with an ultrasonography apparatus, and includes: a compression member that has an opening portion into which a biopsy needle and an ultrasound probe used for capturing the ultrasound image are inserted and that compresses the breast; at least one processor that performs guide processing for guiding a target insertion position and a target insertion angle of the biopsy needle inserted into the breast and a target scanning position of the ultrasound probe; and an acoustic matching body that is provided between the ultrasound probe and the breast in a non-contact state with the biopsy needle.
