It's not a universal fit, so you'll need to confirm your probe model before ordering — the GE C358 convex needle guide is precision-machined for that specific series and won't work with other probes. But it does exactly what it's supposed to: it holds the needle steady during biopsies, giving you consistent alignment through whole procedure. We've seen radiologists use it for liver and kidney biopsies mostly, and it handles those fine.
The thing is made form medical grade metal alloy, so it feels solid in hand — about 0.5 kg, which is lighter than some older guides we've handled. It basically clamps onto the convex probe and the needle tracks along a preset groove, which minimizes tissue trauma compared to freehand techniques. Most buyers go with the standard protective packaing, and it ships within 1-2 weeks or so.

Certifications are CE and ISO13485, which is typical for this class of accessory — we usually have stock, but confirm lead time if you need it faster. The MOQ is just 1 unit, so you can order one to test fit before committing to more. One detail you might not think to ask: the guide doesn't include the needle itself, so you'll need to source those seperately.

Anyway, the warranty is 1 year, which covers defects in materials or workmanship — but not wear from heavy use, obviously. It's better than some off-brand alternatives for tolerance, since the groove alignment is tighter than most generic convex guides. Not suited for linear probes or endocavity probes at all, just the C358.
Also, the production lead time is usually 1-2 weeks, but if we're between batches it might stretch to 3 weeks (check with us). The package is standard protective foam and cardboard, nothing fancy — but it gets the job done for shipping.
