The CIVCO BX2 Ultrasound Needle Guidance System is a positioning accessory, not a repairable device: when a guide is cracked, worn or no longer locks onto the probe, the correct action is replacement. This page helps you confirm the right replacement for your exact probe.

Why biopsy guides are replaced rather than repaired
A biopsy guide constrains the needle path relative to the imaging plane. Cracks, deformation or channel wear shift that path, so a damaged guide is a safety issue rather than a repair candidate. Replacement restores the original geometry; repair cannot be verified to.
This reference is listed for the following probe(s): Canon: 6MC1, PVT-382BT. Bracket geometry differs even between visually similar probes, so the pairing above is the starting point – not proof of fit.
When to replace the guide
- Any crack in the bracket or channel, however small
- The guide no longer clicks or locks firmly onto the probe
- A worn or scored channel that no longer tracks the needle cleanly
- Deformation after autoclaving or disinfection
- Discoloration combined with brittleness of the material
Confirm fit before ordering a replacement
- Photograph the probe’s full manufacturer and model label and send it with the request.
- Photograph the current guide or bracket, including the attachment point on the probe.
- State the guide or bracket reference if it is printed on the part.
- Specify the needle gauge range and whether you need a reusable or disposable configuration.
- Note your sterilization or disinfection workflow so the right configuration is offered.
Similar probe names do not prove that two brackets are interchangeable – the attachment geometry and channel spec decide fit, so compatibility is confirmed against your exact probe label.
Ordering a replacement guide with a probe repair
Ordering a replacement guide alongside a probe repair? Include both in one request with the probe label photo – compatibility for the guide and repairability for the probe get confirmed in a single assessment.
The illustration is representative and is not a photograph of this exact guide. This record does not claim OEM authorization or universal fit. Compatibility, included components, availability and commercial terms are confirmed in writing for the exact probe and guide reference.
