Abstract
A site marker delivery system is provided. The site mark delivery system includes an outer cannula having an open distal end. The outer cannula defines an inner lumen in which an inner cannula may be received. A marker is also positioned within the inner lumen of the outer cannula. The inner cannula further includes a trigger mechanism that when actuated injects the marker through the open distal end of the outer cannula into a biopsy site.
