Abstract
A syringe is coupled to a biopsy needle through a coupling structure that includes a motor-driven element such as a gear to rotate the needle. The needle can have a sharp beveled tip which, in cooperation with rotation of the needle, harvests tissue in vivo via rotation rather than multiple 'sticks' into the patient.
