APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR OBTAINING A SAMPLE OF TISSUE

摘要

Described herein are systems and methods for obtaining a sample of tissue with low power electrosurgical energy. The systems can include an apparatus for obtaining a sample of tissue from a patient having a cannula having a distal opening for receiving the sample of tissue. A wire, located proximate to the distal opening, can delivery energy to ablate tissue such that damage to the tissue sample is minimized.
