Reason

CIVCO has recently discovered a quality issue with Infiniti bracket. The affected brackets were included in the kits identified and manufactured between 11/2009 through 12/2017.

Description of Problem: If the length of the mount may be longer than specified, it can allow the needle guide insert to puncture the cover which is applied between the mount and needle guide assembly. This does not prevent the assembly from functioning as intended to keep the biopsy needle in the ultrasound scanning plane.
