Biopsy set for taking skin specimen core drills 1.5, 3.0, 4.5mm

Clinical Application

This set is intended for dermatologic and minor surgical procedures requiring small cylindrical skin specimens for histopathology, culture, or molecular testing. The three diameters accommodate a range of clinical indications: 1.5 mm for very small lesions or cosmetically sensitive areas, 3.0 mm for routine diagnostic punch biopsies, and 4.5 mm when a larger sample volume is required for deeper diagnostic assessment. The instruments are suitable for outpatient clinics, dermatology practices, and ambulatory surgery centers performing excisional and incisional skin sampling.

Design & Configuration

The hollow tubular (core) design produces a clean, cylindrical specimen with minimal lateral tissue compression when used with controlled rotary or axial motion. Having three incremental diameters in a single set allows the operator to select the smallest diameter that will provide adequate diagnostic tissue while minimizing defect size and facilitating wound closure. The sharp, beveled cutting rim is optimized to separate epidermis and dermis with reduced crush artifact, preserving architecture for histologic interpretation.

Instrument Specifications

• Set contents: three hollow core drills sized 1.5 mm, 3.0 mm, 4.5 mm (diameter)
• Cutting geometry: tubular hollow punch for cylindrical specimen retrieval
• Clinical use: skin punch/core biopsy for histopathology and diagnostic sampling
• Reusable construction suitable for repeated clinical use

Material & Construction

Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel to provide edge retention and corrosion resistance appropriate for reusable surgical instruments. The instruments are designed for routine decontamination and steam sterilization (autoclave) between uses.

Quality & Compliance

Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.

Brand Comparison

Comparable in form and function to equivalent instruments offered by major US medical suppliers.
