Sonosite C60 Biopsy Needle Guide — Replacement

The Sonosite C60 Biopsy Needle Guide 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.

When to replace the guide

• Visible cracks anywhere on the bracket or needle channel
• Loose or unreliable locking onto the probe
• A worn or scored channel that no longer tracks the needle cleanly
• Deformation after autoclaving or disinfection
• Brittle, discolored material that flexes differently than new

Confirm fit before ordering a replacement

• Send a clear photograph of the complete probe manufacturer and model label.
• 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

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.
