Patent number: 10052087Abstract: A biopsy system includes a biopsy device, a control module, a control module interface, at least one wireless data communication link, and an encoder. The biopsy device is operable to capture a tissue sample and includes a reusable portion and a disposable portion. The reusable portion includes an MR compatible motor. The disposable portion is adapted to be releasably joined with the reusable portion. The control module interface is configured to provide an interface between the control module and the reusable portion of the biopsy device. The at least one wireless data communication link includes a first data link configured to permit communication of data between the reusable portion of the biopsy device and the control module interface. The encoder is operationally coupled with the MR compatible motor.Type: GrantFiled: September 4, 2015Date of Patent: August 21, 2018Assignee: Devicor Medical Products, Inc.Inventors: Shailendra K. Parihar, Todd M. Dahling, Patrick A. Mescher, John A. Hibner, Trevor W. V. Speeg, Jessica P. Leimbach, Raj G. Raghavendran, Gavin M. Monson

Patent number: 8328732Abstract: A biopsy system includes a first external device, a second external device and a control module interface. The control module interface is in electrical communication with both the first and second external devices, and the control module interface is in mechanical communication with the second external device. The control module interface is configured to be positioned remotely from at least one of the first and second external devices. The control module interface comprises a motor, operational electronics, a shaft connector assembly, an electrical connector and a cabinet configured to house the motor and operational electronics. The motor is in mechanical communication with the second external device via a mechanical cable. The operational electronics are configured to permit control of the motor and a motorized component of the second external device. In some embodiments, the mechanical cable comprises a flexible shaft cable, such as a speedometer cable.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2008Date of Patent: December 11, 2012Assignee: Devicor Medical Products, Inc.Inventors: Shailendra K. Parihar, Todd M. Dahling, Patrick A. Mescher, John A. Hibner, Trevor W. V. Speeg, Jessica P. Leimbach, Raj G. Raghavendran, Gavin M. Monson
