The biopsy guide that fits the Mindray 6CV1P endocavity probe is the Mindray JEM-028 reusable needle guide, which is listed for the 6CV1 probe family including the 6CV1s and 6CV1P variants. It is a medical stainless steel bracket accepting 16–18G needles, used mainly in OB/GYN procedures such as transvaginal follicle aspiration and pelvic biopsy. Akicare stocks this guide as a compatible aftermarket part and confirms fitment against your probe before dispatch.
Which Guide Fits the Mindray 6CV1P
The 6CV1P is an endocavity transducer used on the Mindray DP-7, Z6, Z6 Vet, Z60 and DC-30 platforms. Because the needle guide clamps onto the probe housing rather than connecting to the console, compatibility is determined by the probe model, not the ultrasound system. The matching part is the Mindray 6CV1 biopsy needle guide (JEM-028), whose fitment covers the 6CV1, 6CV1s and 6CV1P.

Specifications That Matter Before You Buy
Needle gauge and angle
The JEM-028 accepts 16–18G needles, which covers the ovum aspiration and core biopsy needles normally used in transvaginal work. Endocavity guides run the needle along a fixed path that matches the biopsy line overlay in the Mindray imaging software; verify on screen that the projected line tracks the physical needle before the first clinical use.
Confirming the probe variant
Mindray labels the variant on the probe housing near the strain relief. The 6CV1, 6CV1s and 6CV1P share housing geometry, which is why one bracket serves all three — but if the label is worn, send us the serial number and we will confirm it.
Sterilization: Reusable vs. Disposable Guides
The two formats follow different reprocessing paths, and the choice affects both cost per procedure and workflow:
| Attribute | Reusable (stainless steel) | Disposable (single-use) |
|---|---|---|
| Material | Medical-grade stainless steel | Medical polymer, sterile-packed |
| Reprocessing | Steam autoclave or high-level disinfection per the IFU | None — discard after one procedure |
| Cost profile | Higher unit price, low cost per procedure over its service life | Low unit price, recurring cost every procedure |
| Best suited to | Departments with steady biopsy volume and in-house reprocessing | Sites without reprocessing capacity, or strict single-use policies |
A sterile probe cover and sterile needle are required with either format. Always follow the reprocessing instructions supplied with the guide; stainless steel brackets tolerate repeated autoclave cycles, but latching clips should be inspected for wear before each use.
Browse the full biopsy needle guide range or other Mindray-compatible probes and accessories. If you are also replacing the transducer, the compatible 6CV1P probe is available new, typically at 40–70% below the OEM list price.
Check the 6CV1P Probe Before Buying the Guide
Endocavity probes see harder service than surface transducers: they go through high-level disinfection after every exam, and the lens and cable strain relief wear accordingly. Before mounting a new bracket, run a quick image check — dropout bands in the near field, a torn or bubbled lens, or intermittent artifacts when the cable is flexed all point to a probe problem the guide cannot fix. A cracked housing near the clamp area also stops the bracket from seating securely. If the transducer shows any of these signs, our probe repair service restores it at roughly 30–60% of replacement cost with a typical 5–10 business day turnaround, which is usually the cheaper route for a probe of this class.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the JEM-028 also fit the 6CV1 and 6CV1s?
Yes. The 6CV1, 6CV1s and 6CV1P share the same housing geometry, so one bracket serves all three variants. If you are unsure which variant you have, the marking near the strain relief or the serial number settles it.
Do I still need a sterile probe cover with a reusable guide?
Yes. The guide mounts over a sterile probe cover, and a sterile needle is used for every procedure regardless of whether the bracket is reusable or disposable.
Is this an original Mindray part?
No. The JEM-028 we supply is a compatible aftermarket guide. It is checked against the 6CV1-family housing geometry before dispatch, and fitment is confirmed against your specific probe when you order.
How to Order
Send us the probe model and, if possible, the serial number, and we confirm bracket fitment before anything ships. Every guide is checked against the probe housing geometry it is listed for. As with all our compatible accessories and probes, these are aftermarket products — compatible with Mindray equipment, not manufactured by or affiliated with Mindray.
Request pricing directly on the JEM-028 biopsy guide page, or send your requirements through our contact form for a same-week quotation. If the probe itself is damaged, our probe repair service typically costs 30–60% of a replacement, with a 5–10 business day turnaround.
