21.0800 Mammography System PRODUCT INFORMATION:

MScan is a digital mammography system intended to produce standard size high-quality x-ray images of the human breast for purpose of diagnostic and screening mammography.

• Intended to be used in the same clinical applications as film-based mammography system
• Optimal for equipping of radiology departments of regional outpatients clinics, hospitals and diagnostic imaging centers

In MScan system a slot-scanning technique is used, where a thin x-ray beam is scanning across the breast together with a multi-linear array detector moving under the breast.

Advantages of MScan:

• High spatial resolution
  
  MScan generates an image size of 4580 pixels x 5830 pixels with a 22 cm x 28-cm field-of-view, a pixel size of 48 microns with a limiting resolution of 10 line pairs/mm in standard-resolution mode
• High contrast resolution
  
  High contrast resolution together with the ability to manipulate images makes detection of breast cancers more accurate
• Low dose
  
  Slot-scan technology minimizes scatter radiation. Faster exam may induce more women to comply with screening at recommended intervals, thus making mammography facilities more efficient.
• High throughput
  
  Compared with 10-15 minutes required for conventional film mammography, digital mammography images are acquired in less than a minute
