In the realm of medical imaging and diagnostics, staying up-to-date with the latest advancements is crucial for delivering accurate diagnoses and improving patient care.
Introducing Our New State-of-the-Art Imaging Technology: Hologic 3Dimensions™ Mammography System
ERAD Radiology has taken a significant step forward by installing the state-of-the-art Hologic 3Dimensions™ Mammography System. This cutting-edge technology brings remarkable imaging capabilities, including 3D Tomosynthesis, Intelligent 2D Synthesised Imaging, and the Hologic Affirm Upright Breast Biopsy device with 3D Biopsy. Additionally, the system incorporates the innovative Smart Curve System, featuring a unique curved compression paddle that enhances patient comfort without compromising image quality.
Advanced Clarity HD Technology: A Game-Changer in Breast Cancer Screening
One of the most remarkable features of the Hologic 3Dimensions™ Mammography System is its Clarity HD technology. This advanced imaging solution has proven to be a game-changer in breast cancer screening, significantly improving reading time, detection accuracy, and overall confidence in identifying potential malignancies. In fact, Clarity HD has demonstrated the ability to detect up to 65% more invasive breast cancer compared to 2D imaging alone, making it a powerful tool in the fight against this devastating disease.
A Smarter Approach To Patient Comfort
The Hologic 3Dimensions™ Mammography System not only delivers sharper and higher-resolution 3D images, but also offers a smarter approach to patient comfort. With its innovative processing software, the system takes into account the curved compression geometry, ensuring a comfortable mammogram experience for women without compromising image quality. Clinically proven to improve comfort in 93% of patients, this technology has gained the trust and approval of patients who have undergone mammograms.
The SmartCurve™ Breast Stabilization System, exclusively available with the Hologic 3D Mammography™ exam, further enhances the comfort and accuracy of the screening process. By distributing pressure more evenly over the breast, this system reduces pinching and discomfort. Moreover, the recent addition of the SmartCurve™ Mini paddle has made it easier to accommodate patients with small breasts, including men, and those with displaced implants, ensuring that a wider range of individuals can benefit from this breakthrough technology.
Improved Early Detection Capabilities
The impact of the Hologic 3Dimensions™ Mammography System with Clarity HD technology on patient care cannot be overstated. Our Radiologists have reported improvements in their ability to detect breast cancer at an early stage when it is most manageable and treatable. By identifying cancers that may have previously gone unnoticed, this advanced technology has instilled a newfound confidence among healthcare professionals, empowering us to provide the highest standard of care to our patients.
