Akicare AKD-042 Disposable Biopsy Needle Guide for GE 3CRF-D

The Akicare AKD-042 Disposable Biopsy Needle Guide is paired in the Akicare catalogue record with one host probe, the GE 3CRF-D, and the catalogue title describes it as a disposable guideline-angle guide for use with that probe. Buyers working with GE 3CRF-D transducers in theatre, interventional radiology or point-of-care settings can treat this listing as the mapping between that probe and a single-use biopsy guide supplied under the Akicare reference.

The record carries two catalogue IDs, AKD-042 and AKK-042, so the full part number should be quoted in any enquiry to avoid ambiguity. Needle gauge range, puncture angle, packaging and sterilisation format are not stated in the catalogue data and should be settled in writing before ordering. Lead time, delivery route, warranty position and any testing scope are agreed case by case once the team has your requirement, rather than being fixed in the catalogue.

If your department also runs linear GE probes, see the related Biopsy Guides listing Akicare AKD-041 Disposable Biopsy Needle Guide for GE 11L / 11L-D / 12L-RS +3.

Frequently asked questions

On the commercial side: what after-sales support comes with this guide if we place an order?

Support terms are not fixed on this page and are agreed at the point of order. When you contact the team, ask specifically about the returns route, how a damaged or non-conforming shipment is handled, and whether any inspection or documentation can accompany your batch.

At order stage, how does the AKD-042 differ from the AKD-041 guide listed alongside it?

They are separate Akicare references mapped to different GE probes. This guide is listed for the GE 3CRF-D, while the sibling listing covers the GE 11L, 11L-D and 12L-RS family. Match the guide to the probe you actually hold before requesting either part.

What do you need from us to confirm the guide fits our probe?

Send a well-lit photo of the probe label showing manufacturer and model, plus the guide part number you intend to order. The team then checks the pairing against the Akicare catalogue record and confirms the requested configuration before any quotation is issued.
