Production Description
The bone marrow biopsy needle is a specialized medical instrument used to collect a sample of bone marrow tissue for laboratory analysis. This procedure is crucial for diagnosing various hematologic (blood-related) disorders, cancers like leukemia and lymphoma, infections, and other conditions affecting the bone marrow.
Specifications
Strong ergonomic handle; highly resistant to material failure
Soft layer on handle reduces pressure on physician’s hand
Luer-Lock Hub ensures syringe remains connected to handle at all times during use
Double-edged puncture needle and triple-edged trocar needle result in reduced trauma
Special design of device leads to improved biopsy procedure experience and easier sample extraction.
Calibrated needle; better control over needle penetration depth in bone.
Steel parts made from stainless steel with high strength and rigidity in compliance with standards related to medical needles
Protective needle cap protects hands from contact with needle
Application
The primary intended use of a bone marrow biopsy needle is to obtain a solid core sample (trephine biopsy) of bone marrow tissue. This needle is designed with a specialized cutting tip that allows it to cut and extract a cylindrical piece of bone containing the intact bone marrow architecture.
This solid sample is crucial for:
-
Assessing Bone Marrow Architecture: It allows pathologists to examine the overall structure of the bone marrow, including the ratio of blood-forming cells to fat cells, the presence of fibrosis (scarring), and the arrangement of different cell types.
-
Diagnosing Infiltrative Diseases: It's particularly useful for diagnosing conditions where abnormal cells infiltrate the marrow space and alter its structure, such as:
-
Lymphoma: To determine if lymphoma cells have spread to the bone marrow.
-
Myelofibrosis: A disorder where the bone marrow is replaced by fibrous scar tissue.
-
Metastatic Cancer: To detect if cancer from another part of the body (e.g., breast cancer, lung cancer) has spread to the bone marrow.
-
-
Evaluating Cellularity: To determine if the bone marrow is hypercellular (too many cells), hypocellular (too few cells), or normocellular (normal number of cells), which is important in diagnosing conditions like aplastic anemia.
-
Identifying Abnormalities of Bone Structure: While primarily for marrow, it can also reveal issues with the bone itself, like osteoporosis or certain bone tumors.
