Each mammography exam is unique and requires a personalized approach. Helianthus DBT is an advanced digital breast tomosynthesis system intended to meet all patient's diagnostic needs. The new top-of-the-line Helianthus digital mammography system, the DBT version, is
already configured for all mammography procedures including tomosynthesis. It is easily upgradable with cutting-edge biopsy techniques in tomosynthesis and contrast mammography (Dual Energy). Helianthus DBT allows the operator to perform tomosynthesis exams by choosing
between three scan angles: 15°, 24°, or 50°. Image acquisition is always carried out at the maximum resolution of the digital detector.
The Helianthus Series embraces three different full-field digital flat-panel mammography systems that can perform both screening and 2D or 3D diagnostics. All the mammography equipment benefit from state-of-the-art techniques to detect breast cancer, including dual-energy (contrast-enhanced mammography).
15° Screening
The DBT smallest scan angle is optimal when an extremely short scan time is required (even 2.5s) to minimize movement, artifacts, and patient discomfort
24° Standard Diagnostics
The DBT intermediate angle always has a short scan time (4s ) and excellent sharpness. It guarantees a better resolution and is an optimal choice for standard diagnostics procedures
The DBT wide-angle, requiring a longer scan time (7.7s ) improves the discrimination of overlapping tissues (in case of in-depth analysis)
