Mammography System
New Full-field Digital Mammography System
Siemens Healthcare recently announced the FDA has cleared the Mammomat Fusion mammography system.The system features a new generation cesium-iodide detector — an innovative, layered configuration of the photo diodes within the detector that enables more efficient utilization of the radiation dose. The result: high image quality at a patient dose that is at or below the range of other full-field digital mammography systems, with an even lower dose delivered in cases where the patient’s breast thickness exceeds 50 mm. And the system’s large image matrix of 23x30 cm makes the Mammomat Fusion the right choice for screening various breast sizes.
