for the intended purpose of obtaining soft tissue core biopsy samples.

The Sure-Core Biopsy Electrode Kit consists of four components: a locator needle, a locator wire, a soft tissue dillator, and the Sure-Core electrosurgical core cutting electrode. The Sure Core Biopsy Electrode is both a manual core cutting device and a monopolar electrosurgical device that is used to cut soft tissue for the purpose of obtain a biopsy sample. The distal tip is a sharp stainless steel cutting blade which cores the tissue distal to the end of the dilator. The most difficult aspect of obtaining a true core biopsy is the detachment of the core from the remaining tissue. The Sure-Core Biopey Electrode overcomes this obstacle by means of a monopolar electrosurgical wire. The electrosurgical wire cuts the tissue perpendicular to the distal blade.
