摘要：
A marking implement assembly for placing a mark on tissue (for example skin) including a marker body 300 comprising a marking implement 130 extending therefrom, a cap 400 configured to fit on the end of the body to cover the marking implement, the cap including a housing 410 containing an ink reservoir 454, wherein when fitted the marking implement is in fluid contact with the reservoir. In a second aspect, a marker assembly comprises a first connector element 220, a cap includes a second connector element 120, and the two engage in a non-rotatable manner (for example they may both be hexagonal). In a third aspect a marker assembly comprises a marker body with a marking implement and a first coupling, a marking instrument (not shown) including a second co-operating coupling, and a cap which leaves the first coupling exposed. Preferably the cap includes a large flat hand grip (see figures). The marking implement assembly, preferably comprising a nib, can be changed easily between patients but the body and cap re-used, the (preferably hexagonal) coupling allowing the cap to turn the thread 112.
