Bard Monopty Disposable Core Biopsy Instrument 121616
The Bard Monopty Disposable Core Biopsy Instrument 121616 is a sterile, single‑use core biopsy device with a 16‑gauge needle and 16 cm length. It is used to collect tissue samples from soft tissues or organs during biopsy procedures. The instrument is designed for ergonomic, one‑handed use for easy handling and control.
The 121616 model delivers clinicians a ready-to-use biopsy instrument suitable for sampling soft tissues such as liver, kidney, breast, prostate, lymph nodes, or other soft‑tissue masses under imaging guidance. Its sharp‑beveled trocar tip and notched biopsy needle allow smooth penetration and help retrieve intact core tissue specimens with minimal crush artifact, beneficial for accurate histopathology. The lightweight, color‑coded handle improves handling, and the device’s compatibility with a coaxial sheath (if needed) adds flexibility during procedures. Being disposable and sterile, the instrument helps reduce cross‑contamination risk and supports efficient, single‑use workflow in clinical settings.
