Control module interface for MRI biopsy device

A biopsy system comprising:

• (a) a biopsy device comprising:
• (i) a needle portion,
• (ii) a cutter operable to sever tissue received by the needle portion to provide tissue samples,
• (iii) a tissue sample holder operable to receive samples severed by the cutter, and
• (iv) an MR compatible motor operable to rotate a portion of the tissue sample holder;
• (b) a control module;
• (c) a control module interface configured to provide an interface between the control module and the biopsy device;
• and
• (d) at least one wireless data communication link configured to permit communication of data between the biopsy device and the control module interface.

A biopsy system comprising:

• (a) a biopsy device comprising a holster, wherein the holster comprises a cutter driver mechanism and a piezo motor;
• (b) a control module interface, wherein the control module interface comprises:
• (i) a cutter motor comprising an output shaft, wherein the cutter motor is configured to generate rotational motion,
• (ii) a controller configured to control the cutter motor, and
• (iii) a piezo controller configured to control the piezo motor;
• (c) a wireless data communication link configured to permit communication of data between the biopsy device and the control module interface;
• and
• (d) a mechanical communication link configured to permit communication of rotation motion from the output shaft to the cutter driver mechanism.
