Zusammenfassung:A tissue collection device including a biopsy needle support arrangement to support a biopsy needle so that a tissue compartment in the biopsy needle may be located at a collection position. The tissue collection device includes a carrier medium adapted to adhere to and carry a tissue sample deposited thereon and adapted to be arranged at a deposition position permanently spaced from the collection position. The tissue collection device includes a swiping element adapted to swipe sideward relative to the longitudinal direction through the tissue compartment located at the collection position and in the direction of the deposition position in order to thereby move a tissue sample from the tissue compartment to the carrier medium and to thereby press the tissue sample onto the carrier medium so that the tissue sample is deposited on the carrier medium.
