18G Prostate Core Biopsy Gun – Automatic Tissue Sampling Device

The 18G Prostate Biopsy Gun is a specialized core biopsy instrument designed to obtain prostate tissue samples for histopathological examination. An 18-gauge biopsy needle is commonly used in prostate biopsy procedures, including ultrasound-guided transperineal and transrectal approaches. Automatic versions use a spring-loaded firing mechanism to advance the biopsy needle rapidly and collect a core of tissue. The obtained specimen can then be submitted to pathology for microscopic evaluation.
