Breast Health
Continuum of Care
Time is precious when it comes to effective detection, diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer. We strive to save you time at every step along the Breast Health Continuum of Care ensuring more women have more time in better health.
Quantra™ Technology
Higher breast density is known to increase a woman’s risk for breast cancer.1-2 The need for accurate, unbiased analysis is therefore critical. Powered by machine learning, Quantra software analyses the breast tissue texture and pattern in both 2D and tomosynthesis images and categorises the breasts into four composition risk categories.3
Screening & Diagnosis Solution
Explore our clinically proven,* integrated breast imaging and diagnostic solutions optimising your clinical pathway while enhancing a woman’s breast imaging experience. We offer the highest quality4 of imaging that enables confident detection with mammography technologies.
Breast Biopsy Solution
Our mission is to transform breast care with compassionate and effective solutions that maximise value, while minimising the negative impacts of interventional procedures. The best technologies should ease patient anxiety and help clinicians focus on what’s most important, providing the best possible care.
LOCalizer™ Wire-free Guidance System
The LOCalizer wire-free guidance system is designed to provide precision guidance for breast surgeons. Non-palpable breast lesions can be easily located using a miniature radiofrequency identification (RFID) Tag. Tag placement can be done >30 days prior to surgery.
Faxitron® Trident® HD Specimen Radiography System
Have the markers been captured? Are the margins clear? Are targeted calcifications visible? Faxitron Trident HD offers highly detailed imaging for rapid verification in the operating room. The system’s ergonomic design has a small footprint, and can be moved easily between rooms. The imaging area is large enough to fit a large range of sample.5
Faxitron® Path Specimen Radiography System
The Faxitron Path Specimen Radiography System provides optimal imaging for large or thin sliced specimens, resulting in fewer re-cuts. The Faxitron Path system provides up to 6x (or 10x with Faxitron Path+ System) geometric magnification, which can locate very small calcifications in tissue samples to ensure accurate diagnoses.6
Horizon® DXA System
Breast cancer and associated treatments have a high impact on patients. The Horizon DXA system enables a close monitoring of bone mineral density and assessments of vertebral fracture and fat/lean distribution, thereby enriching the quality of your diagnosis during and after cancer treatment.
