Viola D is an elegant digital mammography system for the highest comfort for both patients and radiographers, thanks to the perfect ergonomic design and the complete and intuitive user interface. The exclusive circular gantry offers a face-to-face positioning, granting a faster and more effective solution for excellent image quality while ensuring patient comfort. The system enhances his flexibility through the inclination toward the patient for an easier positioning, upward to allow the relaxation of the pectoral muscle for more breast tissue visualization and the possibility to perform stereotactic biopsies, even in prone position. Patented circular gantry The innovative circular shape allows, as well as a conventional positioning, a face-to-face positioning in order to make technologist’s work easier and quicker. Wide range of movements The tilting movement of the gantry upward the patient allows the relaxation of the pectoral muscle and an increase of up to 2 cm in compressed and visualized breast tissue. It is also possible to tilt the gantry up to the horizontal position to perform stereotactic biopsies.
