BIOSOFT™

Automatic aspiration device for histological biopsy

BIOSOFT™ is a disposable automatic aspiration device used in the main histological biopsies.

Possibility to perform the biopsy with one hand, thanks to the presence of a spring that allows the sample to be taken automatically.
Speed and certainty of biopsy performance.
The particular sharpening of the tip enables users to obtain an integral sample, through a simple and non-traumatic penetration.
The centimetre depth markings allow a safe positioning of the needle.
The sliding stopper enables pre-definition of the penetration depth.
Two versions are available:
– with a fixed cannula;
– with a removable cannula.

Major histological biopsies, such as those of the kidney, liver, and lungs, often require automatic aspiration biopsy systems to obtain high-quality tissue samples while minimizing bleeding, patient discomfort and complications.

Kidney Biopsy: performed to diagnose kidney diseases, monitor transplant rejection, or assess disease progression. Typically done percutaneously using ultrasound or CT guidance with an automatic core biopsy needle, which ensures a precise and consistent sample.

Liver Biopsy: used to evaluate liver conditions like hepatitis, cirrhosis, and tumours. Automatic aspiration (core) needles improve sample quality and reduce fragmentation, which is crucial for accurate histological analysis.

Lung Biopsy: Essential for diagnosing lung cancer, infections, and interstitial lung diseases. CT-guided automatic biopsy devices provide rapid sample retrieval while minimizing lung trauma.

BIOSOFT™ allows for controlled, rapid tissue acquisition with minimal bleeding risk, making it a preferred choice for deep organ biopsies.

Surgical Technique:

Load the needle by pressing the plunger until the anterior button is felt to engage.
Insert the needle tip into the selected biopsy site and proceed under ultrasound guidance.
Press the anterior firing button to start automatic aspiration. Advance the needle approximately 2 cm to take the sample.
Slowly withdraw the needle.
To retrieve the frustule near the needle tip, reload the device by pressing the rear plunger and deposit the sample on a slide.
