Handheld device delivers high-quality imaging to perform guided interventional procedures

Hologic Announces Availability of Viera Portable Breast Ultrasound System

July 11, 2018 — Hologic’s new Viera portablebreast ultrasoundsystem is now available for purchase in the United States and Europe. Delivering what the company calls exceptional image quality at the point of care, the Viera wirelessultrasound scannerprovides physicians with the opportunity for earlier diagnoses and an optimized clinical workflow.

Thanks to its portability, the system offers an efficient way to perform guided interventional procedures, like biopsies, marker placements and wire localizations anywhere, anytime. According to Hologic, Viera portable breast ultrasound allows radiologists to confidently guide greater than 90 percent ofinterventional breast procedures.1

该手持设备在护理点直接向智能设备传输高分辨率图像,从而优化临床工作流程和患者路径。The system seamlessly transmitsbreast imagesto smart devices and picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) in the office, exam room or surgical suite. It allows facilities to add interventional breast ultrasound services for a fraction of the cost of larger, mid-tier cart systems. The device is U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-cleared and CE marked.

Other features of the Viera breast ultrasound system include:

  • Optimization with preset modes for breast, dense breast and interventional procedures that simplify workflow;
  • On-demand high-resolution images – 14 MHz, 192 elements, and supports B, color and Doppler modes; and
  • Ideal for quick diagnostic looks, visual confirmations, interventional procedures.

“我认为Viera系统是一个‘乳房外科医生的听诊器’,它可以很容易地从办公室运到床边,再运到手术室,促进手术计划和肿瘤切除,”巴里·罗森医学博士说。他是北伊利诺斯州高级外科护理中心的乳房外科医生。
