GE Showcases Breast Tomosynthesis Solution

GE Healthcare will showcase at RSNA 2014 its new breast imaging 3D tomosynthesis solution, SenoClaire.

SenoClaire, which received FDA approval in August, uses a low-dose short X-ray sweep around the positioned breast with nine exposures acquired with a “step-and-shoot” method, which removes the potential from motion from the tube helping to preserve microcalcification sharpness and avoid image blur, GE said.

The SenoClaire has no increase in dose from a 2D standard mammogram to a 3D view, GE said.
