GE Senoclaire 3D

SenoClaire from GE*
- Breast tomosynthesis is a three-dimensional imaging
technology that uses a short, low-dose X-ray scan
around the compressed breast with just nine exposures.
- SenoClaire offers superior sensitivity for
architectural distortions and masses,
giving you greater clinical confidence while
delivering the same amount of dose as a
digital mammographic acquisition of the same view.
- The SenoClaire detector delivers high DQE at low dose for
microcalcification visualization without binning, a process that
groups pixels for faster read speeds and improved signal-to
noise ratios, but with reduced image quality.
- Step-by-step tube movement preserves microcalcification
sharpness and avoids image blurring, as the tube comes to
a complete stop for each of the nine exposures.
This provides higher peak contrast for microcalcifications than
continuous tube movement.
- An anti-scatter solution designed for tomosynthesis,
the SenoClaire 3D grid reduces scattered radiation and
improves 3D detectability for breasts of
above-average thickness, while preserving dose and
performance.
- SenoClaire uses ASiRDBT, an iterative reconstruction
algorithm that produces FFDM-like images and
has a positive impact on the visibility of
microcalcification compared with the traditional Filtered Back Projection (FBP) algorithm.
