The INNOFINE JSM-198 Reusable Biopsy Needle Guide for Esaote AC2541 / C1-8 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
Unlike the probe itself – where lenses, cables and connectors are routinely rebuilt – a guide is a single precision part. Once its bracket or channel is worn or cracked, tolerances are gone and the guide should be replaced, not patched.
This reference is listed for the following probe(s): Esaote: AC2541, C1-8. 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
- The needle channel is worn, scored or lets the needle wander
- Deformation after autoclaving or disinfection
- Brittle, discolored material that flexes differently than new
Confirm fit before ordering a replacement
- Photograph the probe’s full manufacturer and model label and send it with the request.
- Include photos of the existing guide or bracket and where it clips onto the probe.
- Quote the reference number printed on the guide or bracket, if legible.
- State the needle gauges you work with and whether reusable or disposable is required.
- Confirm sterilization or disinfection requirements in the request.
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
If the probe itself is also damaged, mention it in the same request – a probe repair and a replacement guide can be assessed and quoted together, which is usually faster than handling them separately.
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.
