Achieve^® Programmable Automatic Biopsy Needle

The Achieve^® biopsy system from CareFusion gives you the precise control and quality sampling capability you need when working with calcified or fibrous lesions. This lightweight automated system offers spring-loaded action for fast, accurate penetration of dense tissue. It is also available with a coaxial introducer for multiple sampling from one percutaneous puncture with minimal damage to surrounding tissue.

The system has two programmable firing modes: in automatic mode, the cannula and stylet release in rapid sequence to capture the specimen with the push of a button. In delay mode, the stylet releases first to allow time for tissue to settle in the sample notch; the clinician then verifies and documents the stylet position, repositions if necessary and activates the cutting cannula.

• Enhanced design requires less force to charge the Achieve needle, ensuring smooth, one-handed operation.

• The Achieve needle is ideal for CT and ultrasound-guided procedures.

• One-handed design simplifies charging and allows for convenient manipulation of ultrasound transducer.
