It’s a requirement of dose performance that patient X-ray dose
be kept as low as reasonably acceptable. A single MLO view of
SenoClaire, powered by ASiR
DBT
, provides clinical non-inferiority
when compared to 2-view digital mammography. It’s half the dose,
with one single compression.
Powered by SenoClaire technology:
• SenoClaire’s ASiR
DBT
iterative reconstruction algorithm delivers
FFDM-like images and positively impacts microcalcification
conspicuity versus the traditional Filtered Back Projection (FBP)
algorithm.
• SenoClaire’s 3D MLO sequence requires only nine exposures
with an even distribution of the dose.
• The SenoClaire grid in 3D reduces scattered radiation and
improves detectability in 3D for breasts of above-average
thickness,
while preserving dose and performance.
• The dual-track X-ray tube (Mo/Rh) delivers optimal X-ray spectra
to penetrate the breast based on breast density and compressed
breast thickness. Automatic Optimization of Parameters (AOP)
helps you identify the densest breast regions and automatically
selects the appropriate anode, filter, kV and mAs to ensure
repeatable image quality at optimized radiation dose.
