| - According to B'Elanna Torres, "the amount of information this thing can gather puts a tricorder to shame. You fire this at someone, you learn everything about their anatomy, right down to their DNA sequencing." In 2371, Dereth used this type of device to beam the lungs directly out of Neelix's body. After Dereth's capture, he used the device to scan the crew of USS Voyager to find a compatible donor, then transplant a new lung into Neelix. (VOY: "Phage")
- The bio-probe was capable of conducting a biological scan down to the micro-cellular level with a quantum imaging scanner, stunning a a victim with a neural resonator, and harvesting the victim's organs by transporting them out of the body.(VOY episodes: "Phage", "Deadlock"; ST reference: The Visual Dictionary) The Federation had its own version of a bio-probe in 2369, though it was used only to confirm certain diseases such as Kalla-Nohra Syndrome. (DS9 episode: "Duet") It was not as powerful as the Vidiian bio-probe.

(DS9 episode: "Duet") It was not as powerful as the Vidiian bio-probe. The USS Voyager's crew encountered the Vidiian's version of the bio-probe when Neelix's lungs were taken by a Honnatta named Dereth. (VOY episodes: "Phage", "Deadlock")
- According to B'Elanna Torres, "the amount of information this thing can gather puts a tricorder to shame. You fire this at someone, you learn everything about their anatomy, right down to their DNA sequencing." In 2371, Dereth used this type of device to beam the lungs directly out of Neelix's body. After Dereth's capture, he used the device to scan the crew of USS Voyager to find a compatible donor, then transplant a new lung into Neelix. (VOY: "Phage") On the call sheet for this episode, the device is simply listed as "Alien Weapon". The concept art of this device was done by Rick Sternbach. The Vidiians that boarded Voyager in 2372 used a bio-probe to scan the crew for harvesting. With it, they were able to determine that Tuvok was a Vulcan male and that he had a damage to his right kidney, from a phaser blast, but his other organs were healthy. Later, in sickbay, they found Kes and were able to determine that she was a female Ocampa with healthy organs. They were also able to determine that she had an extremely high rate of tissue regeneration, which lead to the order to have her pelvic ridge extracted. Scans of the Humans in sickbay indicated that their pancreatic tissues were well suited for transplant. When Samantha Wildman was scanned, they found that she had recently given birth, based on her far above normal hemo-uterine levels. When the infant was not found, the Vidiians set their bio-probe to maximum to find it. (VOY: "Deadlock")
