The 3Dimensions Mammography System from Hologic is the industry’s fastest and highest resolution breast tomosynthesis system on the market. The system offers a variety of features designed to provide higher quality 3D images for radiologists, and enhanced workflow for technologists, with low-dose options, for patients. For example, the system includes Intelligent 2D imaging technology, which works with the system’s Clarity HD high-resolution 3D imaging to deliver unprecedented clarity, contrast and detail at a lower dose.

Another feature available with the 3Dimensions system is the Quantra 2.2 breast density assessment software, which enables standardization in patient protocols, providing reproducible and consistent breast density assessment. Furthermore, thanks to the addition of the SmartCurve breast stabilization system, the 3Dimensions system is also clinically proven to deliver a more comfortable mammogram compared to standard compression, without compromising on speed, dose or accuracy.

Hologic also offers other products for interventional breast operations:   The Brevera  Breast Biopsy System with CorLumina  Imaging Technology is a real-time breast biopsy and verification system that improves the patient experience and streamlines the biopsy process from start to finish. Before the Brevera system, radiologists performing stereotactic breast biopsy procedures to diagnose breast cancer were often required to leave the patient under compression while they moved to another room to image and verify tissue samples. With the Brevera system, radiologists are able to obtain and image tissue samples in the procedure room in just a few seconds, potentially saving up to 10 minutes per patient and cutting the procedure time by up to 25 percent.

The Affirm Prone Breast Biopsy System is the only dedicated prone biopsy system offering superior 2D or tomosynthesis imaging. Thanks to this high-quality 2D or tomosynthesis imaging and a field of view that’s more than 6.5 times larger than older generations of prone biopsy systems, clinicians can visualize more tissue and pinpoint subtle lesions and faint calcifications that may not be visible on older systems.  Of note, more than 95 percent of patients reported their Affirm prone biopsy procedure was faster, more comfortable and less painful than expected. The system is designed with patients’ physical and emotional comfort in mind.
