The Concorde Models Concorde US and Concorde ST Soft Tissue Biopsy Devices are intended for diagnostic sampling of soft tissue during soft tissue biopsy procedures. They are to be used for diagnostic purposes only and are not intended for therapeutic uses.
The Concorde Models Concorde US and Concorde ST Soft Tissue Biopsy Devices are indicated to provide soft tissue samples for diagnostic sampling of soft tissue abnormalities, including breast, liver, kidney, prostate, spleen, lymph nodes, and various other soft tissue abnormalities. They are designed to provide soft tissue for histologic examination, with partial or complete removal of the imaged abnormality.
The extent of histologic abnormality cannot be reliably determined from imaging appearance (ultrasound, radiographic, e.g., mammographic) of a soft tissue abnormality. Therefore, the extent of removal of the imaged evidence of an abnormality does not predict the extent of removal of a histologic abnormality (e.g., malignancy). When the sampled abnormality is not histologically benign, it is essential that the tissue margins be examined for completeness of removal using standard surgical procedures.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA 510(k) statement.
