Posted on 21 Jan 2010
A new breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system has been proven to reduce total exam time by 10 minutes, which could result in a 30% improvement in clinical throughput.

From patient preparation, through examination to reporting and intervention, the technology is designed to make breast MRI easier.

The Elite Breast has been proven to reduce total exam time by 10 minutes, which could result in a 30% improvement in clinical throughput. The system includes advanced breast imaging techniques such as eThrive, the MammoTrak dockable patient support, diagnostic and biopsy coils, and the DynaCAD enterprise breast software for analysis and biopsy planning from the MR console.

High growth of breast MRI procedures is expected from 2009-2016. Clinicians starting to offer or wanting to expand their breast services need a solution that makes Breast MRI simple, offers consistent high image quality, and enables a competitive advantage through image quality, patient comfort, and efficiency.

The Elite Breast solution is available with Philips Achieva 3.0T TX, a truly patient-adaptive MRI system with MultiTransmit technology. MultiTransmit results in enhanced image uniformity and consistency and up to 40% faster scans to bring the benefits of the higher signal of 3T to breast imaging and mainstream radiology.
