BETTER ACCESS
- Biopsy with lateral, straight and inclined holders
- 360° access to the breast
- Prone biopsy & Mammography with the same Selenium detector: unique
Giotto Image + Stereotactic Biopsy = versatility:
- 360° needle access to the breast
- Ability to choose the best possible approach to the breast using the dedicated gun-holders: frontal, frontal inclined and lateral guarantees that no area of the breast is inaccessible with the Biopsy Digit.
- Ability to choose the optimized angle for needle access to the breast at any stage without moving the patient. Lateral access is particularly useful in the case of small breasts and/or lesions placed in the inferior part of the breast, very close to the skin surface.
The lateral arm is provided with double inclination: on X and Y axes. This innovation enables the needle to reach any part of the selected breast area. The Raffaello Biopsy software calculates the exact target position in relation to the gun-holder selected, the needle characteristics and the double X-Y inclination of the needle holder.
Prone Biopsy is by far the preferred stereotactic breast biopsy modality of radiologists all over the world. There are unquestionable advantages for the patient and for the user, and above all, for the quality of the diagnostic result. Giotto Image allows a 360° access around the breast, enabling the radiologist to choose the shortest way to the lesion.
But GIOTTO IMAGE 3D has yet another uniqueness: it is the only one able to guarantee that the lesion visualized during the mammography exam will also be visible during the biopsy. This comes from the fact that it uses the same unit, same detector, same geometry and x-ray source for both Mammography and prone Biopsy examinations. This solves a frequent problem well known by radiologists.
