Analog mammography unit Viola

Versatile and easy to use, the system is able to meet all user’s requirements. The patented design with circular gantry offers a face-to-face positioning and the greatest patient comfort, while the inclination of the unit allows to include more breast tissue into the view. Patented circular gantry The innovative circular shape allows a face-to-face positioning in order to make the technologist’s work easier and quicker. Depending on the patient’s anatomy, a conventional positioning on the side is still possible. Control panels The operational panels on the gantry and on the inner side of the ring enable motorized movements in a quick and easy way. On the base the system is also equipped with pedals for controlling movements and displays showing technical parameters, such as compressor height, compression force, rotational and inclination angle. High configurability The system can be used with X-ray cassette sizes 24×30 or 18×24 or with an add-on digital panel. A large range of compressor paddles and optional accessories for further projections are available to suit a typical screening workflow. Wide range of movements The unique design of the gantry ensures a great comfort for the patient. The tilting movement allows the relaxation of the pectoral muscle and an increase of up to 2 cm in the visualized breast tissue. Furthermore, the tilting movement towards the patient allows the positioning of women in a wheelchair. Dose Reduction Technologically advanced components ensure optimal image quality with the lowest patient dose in all operating conditions.
