Biopsy Guides C41V1 Akicare — Replacement

Biopsy guides like the Biopsy Guides C41V1 Akicare are replaced rather than repaired – the bracket geometry and needle channel must stay within tolerance, and a worn or damaged guide should come out of service. Use this page to confirm fit before ordering a replacement.

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.

When to replace the guide

• Visible cracks anywhere on the bracket or needle channel
• Loose or unreliable locking onto the probe
• The needle channel is worn, scored or lets the needle wander
• Warping or distortion after reprocessing
• 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.
• Photograph the current guide or bracket, including the attachment point on the probe.
• Quote the reference number printed on the guide or bracket, if legible.
• Specify the needle gauge range and whether you need a reusable or disposable configuration.
• 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

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.
