The Compass Steerable Needle CSN1001 is a sterile, single use biopsy needle for collecting tissue from within the lungs. Its 22 gauge needle is used through a compatible bronchoscope working channel.

A handle controls device rotation, advancement, retraction and bending of the distal shaft tip in one direction. A separate sampling mechanism extends and retracts the needle to obtain tissue, while a proximal luer connector accepts a stylet or aspiration syringe.
