Highly versatile digital mammographic system with the latest FFDM and DBT technology, suitable for both screening and diagnostic mammography.
Viola DBT Compact Design offers a wide range of functions, such as conventional 2D mammography, DBT (with synthetic image G-View), stereotactic or tomo-guided biopsies with close to 360° approach and Dual Energy (CESM).
Thanks to the single-column stand the system is very compact, while the increased speed of the gantry’s movement and positioning produce high throughput. The user-friendly Raffaello software interface ensures a seamless workflow and optimal image quality.
The special metal-ceramic X-ray tube guarantees continuous heat dissipation for high patient’s throughput and high performance in all acquisition modalities, while assuring lower maintenance practices.
It features a reduced weight and better stability to perform a Step&Shoot DBT acquisition in order to get images with more sharpness and details.
Thanks to the single column gantry with embedded generator and the compact dimension of the Acquisition Workstation (AWS), the system can be installed even in small rooms or mobile units. It features a wider rotation angle and vertical range and faster movements (suitable for a screening workflow).
The innovative design of the gantry enables a wide freedom of quick movements in any direction.
The forward tilting movement (up to -10°) allows the positioning of non-collaborative patients (i.e., in wheelchair), while the backward tilting movement (up to +15°) ensures the relaxation of the pectoral muscle in order to include more breast tissue into the view.
Raffaello, the dedicated management software for breast care, ensures a rapid and easy workflow for each acquisition modality (2D, DBT, BIOPSY and CESM).
The user-interface is easy and intuitive and it is configurable according to the operator’s needs.
Raffaello software can also be installed on the optional Review Workstation (RWS) with a set of dedicated tools for rapid mammography and tomosynthesis image reviewing.
Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) gives an improvement in detection and characterization of lesions.
Step&Shoot acquisition allows exposures while the tube is stationary: the result is an image that is completely devoid of blurring effects and with sharper outlines.
Thanks to the Iterative Reconstruction Algorithm, an extremely fast and precise tomosynthesis reconstruction with no binning, images have high level of detail, allowing the identification of microcalcifications and tiny breast structures.
Contrast Enhanced Spectral Mammography (CESM) is a new breast imaging technique. Following the injection of a contrast agent, in a very short time and within a single breast compression, two images are acquired, one with low-energy and one with high-energy. A special image subtraction algorithm generates a clinical image which reveals the potential tumour angiogenesis alone.
Innovative components and cutting-edge image processing software ensure high image quality with the lowest patient dose in all operating conditions.
