SenoClaire 3D breast tomosynthesis: 3D combined with medical imaging
The SenoClaire 3D breast tomosynthesis detector offers high detection quantum efficiency (DQE) at a remarkably low dose, guaranteeing exceptional visualization of microcalcifications without compromising image quality through binning processes.
Progressive tube movement, another feature of SenoClaire technology, redefines the imaging process by preserving microcalcification sharpness and eliminating image blur.
With the tube coming to a complete stop for each of the nine exposures, SenoClaire achieves a higher maximum contrast for microcalcifications than traditional methods of continuous tube movement. This meticulous approach guarantees clarity and precision in the detection of subtle anomalies, crucial for the early detection of cancer.
The dual-channel X-ray tube (Mo/Rh) provides optimal X-ray spectra to penetrate the breast, depending on breast density and compressed breast thickness. Automatic parameter optimization (AOP) helps you identify the densest regions of the breast and automatically selects the appropriate anode, filter, X-ray spectrum, kV and mAs to ensure reproducible image quality at an optimized radiation dose.
SenoClaire 3D breast tomosynthesis incorporates an anti-scatter solution specially designed for tomosynthesis: the SenoClaire 3D grid.
This grid reduces scattered radiation and improves detectability in 3D imaging, particularly for breasts of above-average thickness. By effectively attenuating scatter while maintaining dose efficiency, SenoClaire optimizes performance for a variety of patient profiles, guaranteeing comprehensive, reliable screening results.
The ASiRDBT iterative reconstruction algorithm is at the heart of SenoClaire's image quality. Unlike traditional filtered back-projection (FBP) algorithms, ASiRDBT generates images that closely resemble full-field digital mammography (FFDM), improving visibility of microcalcifications and diagnostic confidence. This iterative approach to reconstruction maximizes detail preservation and minimizes noise, giving radiologists a quality overview of breast tissue structures.
Designed to be scalable, whether you need functions such as breast tomosynthesis, stereotaxy or spectral mammography with contrast, the Senographe platform adapts to your evolving needs and capabilities.
You can expand your system with confidence, knowing that these upgrades are fully compatible. Whether you want to improve diagnostic accuracy with 3D tomosynthesis, enable precise biopsy guidance with stereotaxis, or enhance lesion detection with contrast-enhanced spectral mammography, the Senographe system offers a full range of options to meet your needs.
This adaptability not only ensures the longevity of your investment, but also guarantees your patients the highest quality of care. Whether you're a small clinic or a large medical facility, the Senographe platform offers an excellent balance between precision and performance, enabling you to achieve optimal results for your patients while maximizing the efficiency of your practice.
SenoClaire 3D breast tomosynthesis images integrate well with leading PACS vendors, optimizing your investment in breast imaging technology. The IDI MammoWorkstation makes navigating DBT datasets easy, thanks to specialized 2D/3D snapping protocols and ergonomic features. Radiologists benefit from direct visual identification of tomosynthesis planes and slabs, as well as dedicated tools for a complete examination, including cine loop, bookmarks, breast locator and breast height ruler. In addition, V-Preview reconstructed images enhance diagnostic capabilities, ensuring efficient and accurate interpretation of breast imaging data.
