title: Curved stylus for redirection of the fine-needle guide.
abstract: A new curved stylus, fabricated from a new alloy (rocket wire), can be used in fine-needle biopsy and drainage procedures after a near miss of the target. This permits reorientation of the tip of the needle into the target and obviates the need for additional passes.
