The smallest direct conversion FPD pixel size of 50 μm enables high-definition imaging. It also includes ISC, which adjusts contrast and low X-ray dose using a Tungsten target.
It has density/contrast adjustment processing, frequency enhancement processing, and dynamic range compression processing, which allow for automatic adjustment of the amount of dynamic range compression for each image. It recognizes image areas that include the characteristics of the mammary gland and fat areas, and increases the contrast of those areas independently making the density of each constant.
Continuous tube motion for tomosynthesis sweep and images taken from multiple positions are reconstructed. It can provide images focused on the structures you want to see, further facilitating observation of lesions that are difficult to detect due to overlapping mammary gland structures.
Sweep angle: ±7.5°
Number of shots: 19
Pixel size: 100/150μm
This mode enables high-speed imaging by reducing the sweep angle and speeding up image readout. The depth of field is deep, and the cine display allows efficient viewing of tomographic images.
Exam / screening / follow-up, etc.
Sweep angle: ±20°
Number of shots: 35
Pixel size: 50/100μm
This mode has a larger sweep angle with improved depth resolution. The shallow depth of field allows for a better focus on an area of interest.
Additional imaging for close examination / morphology, etc.
A S-View image that includes breast thickness information is created from the tomosynthesis image at 50 μm. A single tomosynthesis imaging session produces a tomosynthesis (3D) image and a S-View image that includes features of tomosynthesis.
To prevent movement of the face guard during tomosynthesis imaging, the face guard is secured to the supporting column of the device. The arm connecting the face guard to the supporting column collapses in accordance with the tube movement, so the face guard will not be visible at either the ST (15 degrees) or HR (40 degrees) angles.
