Intended Use
The FINESSE™ Ultra Breast Biopsy System is intended to obtain soft tissue samples for diagnostic and histological analysis of breast abnormalities. The FINESSE™ Ultra Breast Biopsy System is indicated to obtain tissue samples from the breast or axillary lymph nodes for diagnostic analysis of breast abnormalities. The instrument is intended to provide breast tissue for histologic examination with partial or complete removal of the imaged abnormality. The extent of histologic abnormality cannot be reliably determined from its mammographic appearance. Therefore, the extent of removal of the imaged evidence of an abnormality does not predict the extent of removal of a histologic abnormality (e.g., malignancy). When the sampled abnormality is not histologically benign, it is essential that the tissue margins be examined for completeness of removal using standard surgical procedures.
Device Story
Handheld, self-contained, vacuum-assisted breast biopsy system; used with ultrasound guidance. System consists of reusable driver (containing electronics/vacuum generation) and disposable biopsy probe. Operates without external power or vacuum source. Enables excision and storage of multiple tissue samples without probe removal between samples. Used by clinicians in clinical settings. Provides tissue samples for histologic examination; aids in diagnostic analysis of breast abnormalities. Benefits patient by allowing minimally invasive tissue acquisition for diagnosis.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data presented.
Technological Characteristics
Handheld, self-contained vacuum-assisted biopsy system. Reusable driver with integrated electronics and vacuum generation; disposable biopsy probe. No external power or vacuum source required. Sterilization method consistent with predicates.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring tissue sampling of breast or axillary lymph nodes for diagnostic analysis of breast abnormalities. Intended for histologic examination via partial or complete removal of imaged abnormalities.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A gastroenterology-urology biopsy instrument is a device used to remove, by cutting or aspiration, a specimen of tissue for microscopic examination. This generic type of device includes the biopsy punch, gastrointestinal mechanical biopsy instrument, suction biopsy instrument, gastro-urology biopsy needle and needle set, and nonelectric biopsy forceps. This section does not apply to biopsy instruments that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.

## Device Description:
The subject device, the FINESSE™ Ultra Breast Biopsy System, is a handheld, self-contained, vacuum assisted breast biopsy system for use with ultrasound imaging guidance. The system is comprised of (1) a reusable hand piece (driver) that contains all electronics and components to generate a vacuum without the need to be connected to any external power supply or vacuum source and (2) a disposable biopsy probe capable of excising and storing multiple tissue samples without the need for the probe to be removed from the patient between samples.
## Intended Use of Device:
The FINESSE™ Ultra Breast Biopsy System is intended to obtain soft tissue samples for diagnostic and histological analysis of breast abnormalities.
#### Indications for Use of Device:
The FINESSE™ Ultra Breast Biopsy System is indicated to obtain tissue samples from the breast or axillary lymph nodes for diagnostic analysis of breast abnormalities. The instrument is intended to provide breast tissue for histologic examination with partial or complete removal of the imaged abnormality.
The extent of histologic abnormality cannot be reliably determined from its mammographic appearance. Therefore, the extent of removal of the imaged evidence of an abnormality does not predict the extent of removal of a histologic abnormality (e.g., malignancy). When the
