Tomosynthesis Breast Exams - As Works In Progress

GENEVA, Switz. January 31 — Carestream Health will display tomosynthesis breast imaging exams on a CARESTREAM Vue Mammo Workstation as a works in progress* at the European Congress of Radiology (ECR). This demonstrates the company’s commitment to support emerging breast imaging modalities on its mammography PACS platform.

The CARESTREAM Vue Mammo Workstation is integrated with a broad range of breast imaging modalities, CAD systems, archives, PACS and information systems, including PenRad’s patient tracking and mammography information system and peerVue’s Qualitative Intelligence and Communication System.  

The Web-based Vue Mammo Workstation can be standalone or integrated as part of the CARESTREAM Vue Mammo PACS to deliver convenient access and synchronisation of patient information, procedures and status for a single site or a multi-site healthcare system.

The Vue Mammo Workstation supports review of general radiology procedures in addition to mammography procedures, including digitised films. Advanced tools include intelli-zoom, cross reference lines, study replacement, history channel and user-configurable display protocols. Studies are automatically sized so they display correctly even if they are coming from different vendors’ FFDM systems. The choice of a handheld controller or desktop keypad can also reduce hand movement and deliver better ergonomics.
