DISPOSITIFS DE GUIDAGE D'AIGUILLE À MONTER SUR DES TRANSDUCTEURS D'IMAGERIE OU ADAPTATEURS SUR TRANSDUCTEUR D'IMAGERIE, DE TELS TRANSDUCTEURS ET ADAPTATEURS POUR LE MONTAGE DE DISPOSITIFS DE GUIDAGE D'AIGUILLE
A needle guide device for releasable mounting on an imaging transducer or on an adaptor bracket on an imaging transducer is disclosed. The needle guide device includes a universal lockable mounting member which is configured for slidable releasable engagement with a coupling member on a specially constructed imaging transducer or on a conventional imaging transducer onto which a specially constructed adaptor is mounted. The needle guide device makes use of a slidable mounting member to cooperate with the coupling member. The needle guide device is adjustable to establish various selectable angular trajectories for a needle and has a low profile form factor to result in the creation of a minimal blind zone when mounted on the transducer and even if establishing a large angle for shallow needle penetration.
