Original Abstract Submitted

A tissue collection system for collecting a sample from the body. The system may comprise a tubular member having a proximal end region and a distal end region and defining a lumen extending from the proximal end region to the distal end region, an elongate shaft slidably disposed within the lumen of the tubular member, the elongate shaft extending from a proximal end region to a distal end region, a tissue collection device disposed adjacent to the distal end region of the elongate shaft, and a filter positioned proximal to a distal end region of the tissue collection device when the tissue collection device is in a use configuration.
