Abstract

Abstract

An integrated biopsy needle assembly for use with a conventional biopsy gun comprises a hollow cannula, a stylet, a cannula hub operatively fixed to the proximal end of the cannula, a stylet hub operatively fixed to the proximal end of the stylet, and a hub strap operably associated therewith. The cannula hub is operatively fixed to the hub strap, while the stylet hub is capable of movement relative to the hub strap. The hub strap includes a top member, at least one side wall and at least one bottom member, thereby forming an inner channel. The cannula and stylet hubs further include a base and a cap, with the cannula and stylet hub caps being maintained at all times within the inner channel of the hub strap.
