ABSTRACT An apparatus I call the "Morgan Needle Biopsy Guide" is for use in Medicine, particularly for biopsy of the prostate gland. In recent years Biopsy Guns have been developed which are fast and require less anaesthetic but have a six inch long flexible needle which needs stabilization and guiding to the tissue being biopsied. The "Morgan Needle Biopsy Guide" is made of surgical stainless steel in two parts welded together. The first part is a slim tube than can accommodate the biopsy needle, with a slight curvature to fit the relaxed index finger. The second part is cut of malleable stainless steel, and has two nearly complete rings that go around the near and far end of the index finger like a sleeve. They provide stability to the "Guide" and can be bent to fit snugly on different diameter fingers. This piece also has a "spine" portion which runs the length of the index finger and onto the palm of the hand where it widens out to provide a guard to protect the users hand from the needle. The palm end has a shoulder which the Guns fit up to, ensuring the needle is at appropriate length.
