## Indications for use
Disposable Biopsy Refill Needle is intended for soft tissue core biopsy from liver,kidney, prostate, breast, spleen, lymph nodes and various soft tissue masses. The device is not intended for use in bone. The extent of histological abnormality cannot be reliably determined from its mammographic appearance. Therefore the extent of removal of the imaged evidence of an abnormality does not predict the extent of removal of a histological 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.
