Lateral adapter for biopsy system

An adapter for securing a biopsy guidance module to a breast imaging system includes an adapter body which includes a first side and an opposite second side. An armature extends from the first side of the body. A latch mechanism is disposed proximate an end of the armature distal from the first side of the body. The latch mechanism includes an adapter latch and an actuator. The adapter latch is configured to engage an interface on the breast imaging system. The actuator is engaged with the adapter latch to move the adapter latch from an unlocked position to a locked position. In the locked position, the adapter latch is releasably engaged with the interface. A keeper is disposed on the second side of the body. The keeper is configured to receive a module latch from the biopsy guidance module.
