Leltek LeSONO Reusable Needle

The LK128 Needle Guide is used for ultrasound-guided biopsy, a procedure in which the clinician follows the ultrasound image while placing a needle in tissue. A needle guide attaches to the probe and holds the needle on a set line, so the needle's route is known before it enters. The guide is designed for LeSONO LK128 handheld ultrasound scanners, with a convex version for convex scanners and a linear version for linear scanners.

The settings are those where a handheld scanner is used for sampling: imaging departments, outpatient clinics, and point-of-care areas where the scanner travels to the patient. A reusable stainless steel body suits repeated procedures, because the same guide returns to the probe for the next case. Each version weighs 90 g, so the guide travels with the probe as a single handheld unit.

The users are clinicians who perform ultrasound-guided biopsy. Before the procedure, the operator attaches the guide and selects one of three angles: 15°, 25°, or 35° on the convex version, or 41°, 49°, or 61° on the linear version. A needle anywhere from 11 to 23 gauge then runs along the chosen line while the operator watches the screen. Gauge numbers fall as needles thicken, so the range spans heavier and finer needles for different sampling tasks.

As a passive steel fixture, the guide is ready as soon as it is attached. The part numbers, M-As04-1004-A for the convex version and M-As04-1005-A for the linear version, identify the guide that matches each scanner in service.

One of three fixed angles per version

Each version offers three set entry angles. The convex guide provides 15°, 25°, or 35°, and the linear guide provides 41°, 49°, or 61°, so the operator selects a line built into the guide.

A needle held steady on its line

Once the guide is attached to the probe, its structural support keeps the biopsy needle stable. The needle holds the angle that was chosen before the procedure began.

Two versions for two scanner forms

A convex version and a linear version cover the two LeSONO LK128 scanner forms the guide is listed for. Part number M-As04-1004-A is the convex guide and part number M-As04-1005-A is the linear guide, so each scanner has a matching guide.

Needles from 11 to 23 gauge

Both versions accept the full range from 11 to 23 gauge. Gauge numbers fall as the needle thickens, so the guide supports heavier and finer needles alike.

Medical-grade stainless steel

The body is medical-grade stainless steel. The material is corrosion-resistant, which suits an instrument that is used again and again.

Reusable across procedures

The guide is reusable, so one guide serves each procedure in a series on the same scanner. A department running a regular biopsy list keeps its guide with its probe.

Sized for a handheld probe

A weight of 90 g and a height of 109 to 118 mm keep the guide in proportion to a handheld probe. The footprint is 35 to 36 mm wide and 43 to 45 mm deep.

Ready whenever it is attached

The guide is a passive steel fixture. Battery, charging, and electrical testing play no part in its use, and attachment is the only step before choosing the angle.

Clear part numbering per version

Each version has its own part number: M-As04-1004-A for convex and M-As04-1005-A for linear. The part number therefore fixes the set of angles, gauge range, and dimensions.

Convex version with 15°, 25° and 35° angles

The convex guide, part number M-As04-1004-A, holds the needle at 15°, 25° or 35°. It is the version listed for the LeSONO LK128 convex scanner.

Linear version with 41°, 49° and 61° angles

The linear guide, part number M-As04-1005-a, holds the needle at 41°, 49° or 61°. It is the version listed for the LeSONO LK128 linear scanner.

Needle gauge range of 11 to 23

Needles from 11 to 23 gauge fit both versions. The range covers thick needles at the low end and fine needles at the high end.

Medical-grade stainless steel body

Both versions use a medical-grade stainless steel guide body. One material runs through the convex and linear guides.

Corrosion-resistant material

The steel resists corrosion, which suits a guide that returns to the probe case after case.

Reusable construction

Reuse is part of the design. The guide supports repeated biopsy procedures on the same patient.

Structural support on attachment

When the guide attaches to the probe, it provides structural support for the needle. That support is what keeps the biopsy needle stable at the selected angle.

Weight of 90 g per guide

Each guide weighs 90 g, and both versions share that figure. The weight is a fixed addition to the probe it is mounted on.

Convex dimensions of 118 × 36 × 43 mm

The convex guide measures 118 mm in height, 36 mm in width and 43 mm in depth. At 90 g, these figures define the convex guide's size.

Linear dimensions of 109 × 35 × 45 mm

The linear guide measures 109 mm in height, 35 mm in width and 45 mm in depth. At 90 g, these figures define the linear guide's size.

Part number for the convex guide

M-As04-1004-A identifies the convex version. It includes the 15°, 25°, and 35° angle set.

Part number for the linear guide

M-As04-1005-a identifies the linear version. It includes the 41°, 49°, and 61° angle set.

Fit for the LeSONO LK128 series

The guide is listed as compatible with the LeSONO LK128 series, in its convex and linear forms. Each form takes its own matching guide.

Passive steel design

The guide is a fixed steel fixture that holds the needle at a set angle. Attaching it is its only setup.

The LK128 Needle Guide suits departments that perform ultrasound-guided biopsy with LeSONO LK128 convex and linear scanners and want to set the needle path before the procedure begins. Its strength is the fixed angle: three entry lines per version, each backed by structural support that keeps the needle stable. A department with a regular biopsy list gains from the reusable, medical-grade, corrosion-resistant stainless steel body, because one guide serves case after case. The convex version, M-As04-1004-A, matches the convex scanner with 15°, 25° and 35° angles, and the linear version, M-As04-1005-A, matches the linear scanner with 41°, 49° and 61° angles. Both accept needles from 11 to 23 gauge and weigh 90 g.
