Minerva stocks 167+ ultrasound needle guides and complete needle-guide procedure kits across every major clinical use case — transvaginal and transrectal endocavity, vascular access, abdominal and MSK general-purpose, and Aspen ProV-Access disposable. Every guide is OEM-compatible with a specific probe model — filter by ultrasound manufacturer below or browse the full Needle Guides catalog.

Choose the right needle guide

Needle guides are probe-specific — a guide fitted to a GE C1-6 will not fit a Samsung CA1-7A. Two selection criteria matter:

  1. Probe model. Match the guide to your ultrasound transducer's exact model number. Minerva carries guides for GE, Philips, Samsung, Siemens, Mindray, Canon, Hitachi, Alpinion, Ultrasonix, Sonosite, BK Medical, Esaote, Zonare, SuperSonic, Bard, SonoScape, Terason, Vinno, and ECM probes.
  2. Sterility and use case. Sterile single-use guides are indicated for procedures crossing sterile fields (biopsy, vascular access, drainage); reusable guides are validated for the procedures listed in the manufacturer IFU.

By clinical application

  • Endocavity Needle Guides — 87 guides for transvaginal and transrectal probes used in prostate biopsy, IVF egg retrieval, endometrial sampling, and pelvic drainage.
  • Vascular Needle Guides — 25 guides for ultrasound-guided central line, PICC, and arterial access with linear probes.
  • General Purpose Needle Guides — 38 guides for abdominal paracentesis, thoracentesis, MSK injection, and superficial biopsy with curved and linear probes.
  • Needle Guide Procedure Kits — 94 complete kits bundling guide, sterile probe cover, coupling gel, and needle for turnkey point-of-care use.
  • ProV-Access Needle Guides — 15 Aspen ProV-Access single-use disposable guides for high-volume clinics prioritizing infection prevention.

By ultrasound manufacturer

Every guide below is compatible with specific probe models from the listed manufacturer. Verify your exact probe model number against the product page before ordering.

Sterility, IFU compatibility, and reprocessing

Every needle guide Minerva sells is either FDA-cleared or exempt under 21 CFR 892.1560 (diagnostic ultrasound transducer) and 892.1570 (diagnostic ultrasound transducer accessories). Reusable guides must be reprocessed per the manufacturer IFU — most are classified as semi-critical under the CDC Spaulding framework and require high-level disinfection between patients. Single-use disposable guides are supplied sterile and are discarded after one use.
