Summary:A biopsy device includes a housing and at least one biopsy mechanism moveably connected to the housing. The biopsy can be provided on a biopsy arm. An actuator moves the biopsy arm and operates the biopsy mechanism. The biopsy arms with the biopsy mechanisms are preferably removable from the housing, such that the housing can be used again for subsequent biopsy procedures. L'invention concerne un dispositif de biopsie comprenant un logement et au moins un mécanisme de biopsie connecté mobile au logement. Ce mécanisme peut être disposé sur un bras de biopsie. Un actionneur permet de déplacer le bras de biopsie et de faire fonctionner le mécanisme. Les bras de biopsie et les mécanismes de biopsie sont, de préférence, amovibles du logement de façon à pouvoir utiliser ce logement pour d'autres procédures de biopsie.
