Abstract: An all-in-one mammography and breast ultrasonography apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes: a scanning table on which breasts are placed, the scanning table having a first axis aligned with a scanning direction of breasts and a second axis orthogonal to the first axis; an X-ray imaging device including an X-ray source arranged above the scanning table to generate X-rays for mammography and an X-ray flat panel detector arranged on the scanning table to detect the X-rays generated from the X-ray source; first and second ultrasound probes arranged on the scanning table so as to be adjacent to both ends of the X-ray flat panel detector to perform breast ultrasonography, the first and second ultrasound probes elongated along the second axis; and an orbital motion device installed on the scanning table to reciprocate the X-ray flat panel detector and the first and second ultrasound probes together along the first axis.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a needle guide device having a housing, a core needle, a guide needle assembly having a slide or a push button and a spring for biopsy, which is capable of easily separating a guide needle and a core needle.

Abstract: Provided is a breast slip prevention pad for preventing a breast of a patient from slipping between compression presses when using a compression press type ultrasonic breast scanner. The breast slip prevention pad for an ultrasonic breast scanner includes a mesh sheet formed of an ultrasonic-wave-permeable flexible synthetic resin, and a support plate fixed to one surface of the mesh sheet to support the mesh sheet in a tightly stretched state so that a part of the mesh sheet is exposed. The mesh sheet includes a plurality of transverse ribs and a plurality of longitudinal ribs arranged to extend in a direction perpendicular to the transverse ribs, and the height of the longitudinal ribs is set to be larger than the height of the transverse ribs.

Abstract: Provided are a biopsy device and system for effectively collecting tissue samples by cutting human tissue. The biopsy device of the present invention consists of a needle, a cutter, a drive mechanism, a vacuum line and an air inlet line. The biopsy system of the present invention comprises: a vacuum source connected to the vacuum line; and a solenoid actuator for closing and opening the passageway by pressing and releasing a flexible tube of the air inlet line. The present invention creates the atmospheric pressure at the rear end of the transporting direction of a tissue sample while creating a low pressure at the front end of the transporting direction of the tissue sample by suction of the vacuum source, thereby generating a pressure difference between the front end and the rear end of the transporting direction of the tissue sample, and thus has an effect of smoothly transporting tissue samples.

Abstract: The disposable intubation apparatus includes an intubation tube and a hollow guide tube which is inserted into a bore of the intubation tube to facilitate intubation of the intubation tube. The intubation tube is a hollow tube having opposite open ends, in which one end thereof is fixed to an adapter to be connected to an external device for supplying gas to the bore. The guide tube has open first and second ends and is arranged to be inserted into the intubation tube so that the second end is exposed to the outside of the adapter. The disposable intubation apparatus includes a receptacle which is detachably connected to the adapter of the intubation tube so as to facilitate intubation of the intubation tube using the guide tube.

Abstract: A biopsy device for use in excising tissue from a human body includes an outer member, an inner member and a rotary drive means for rotating the inner member with respect to the outer member. The outer member includes a cylindrical outer body portion, an outer cutout portion defined in the outer body portion, an acute outer knife edge portion formed to extend along an edge of the outer cutout portion and a cutting tip provided at a tip end of the outer body portion. The inner member includes an inner body portion inserted into the outer member, an inner cutout portion defined in the inner body portion to obliquely extend with respect to a longitudinal direction of the inner body portion and an acute inner knife edge portion formed to extend along an edge of the inner cutout portion.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for an ultrasonic examination of a deformable object, particularly, the breast. More particularly, the present invention relates to an apparatus capable of performing an ultrasonic examination by moving an ultrasonic probe while maintaining the position and shape of a deformable object to be inspected. That is, the present invention relates to an apparatus capable of performing an effective ultrasonic by scanning an entire deformable object such as the breast at one time using a movable ultrasonic probe.
