Patent number: 5353804Abstract: An apparatus for removing suspect breast tissue which includes a penetrating member in the form of a stylet with a tapered front end that can be guided along a localization guide wire. The apparatus also including a first cutting device in the form of a cannula slidingly engaged with the stylet. A driving assembly is in driving engagement with the cannula and, upon activation, potential energy stored in the driving assembly acts to drive the forward end of the cannula forward of the stylet's forward end so as to define a core cavity. A second cutting device which includes a garret wire having a looped section positioned within a recess at the forward end of the cannula is also provided. The driving assembly preferably also acts to rotate the cannula with a cam arrangement such that the cannula rotates when being driven forward.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 1993Date of Patent: October 11, 1994Assignee: PEB Biopsy CorporationInventors: Elliot Kornberg, William R.

Patent number: 4834149Abstract: A method of utilizing an apparatus of the type comprising a vial container hazardous material in the vial container in a condition requiring a diluent to be mixed therewith to form the liquid solution, and an assemblage carried by the vial container for providing (1) a sealed medicament chamber within the vial container within which the hazardous material is disposed, (2) a filter vented control chamber and (3) a sealed variable volume control chamber between the vented control chamber and the medicament chamber. The method is such as to enable an open end of a syringe needle of a diluent syringe having a syringe chamber containing diluent in communication therewith to be moved into and withdrawn successively from the chambers so as to mix the diluent with the hazardous material. The method also contemplates procedures for separately refilling a dosage syringe and for relieving any residual pressure in the vial chamber with the use of an empty syringe prior to initial or final refilling of a dosage syringe.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 1988Date of Patent: May 30, 1989Assignee: Survival Technology, Inc.Inventors: Donald J.
