Abstract:
Certain aspects relate to biopsy apparatuses, systems and techniques for biopsy using a biopsy pattern. Some aspects relate to moving a distal portion of a medical instrument to one or more sample locations of the biopsy pattern and guiding the instrument to obtain tissue samples from the sample locations within the biopsy pattern. Some aspects relate to obtaining the biopsy pattern and adjusting the sample locations within the biopsy pattern based on various factors such as anatomical features.

Claim (Index 1):
A system configured to aid obtaining a set of one or more biopsy samples from a tissue site, the system comprising:\n an instrument through which the one or more biopsy samples can be collected; an actuator configured to control movements of the instrument; at least one computer-readable memory having stored thereon executable instructions; and one or more processors in communication with the at least one computer-readable memory and configured to execute the instructions to cause the system to at least:\n access a biopsy pattern comprising one or more sample locations within the tissue site; \n calculate movement of the instrument according to the biopsy pattern; and \n move the instrument to one or more positions corresponding to the one or more sample locations.
