SenoClaire technology, which was developed through collaboration with Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, uses a low-dose short X-ray sweep around the positioned breast with nine exposures acquired with a “step-and-shoot” method, removing the potential motion from the tube helping to reduce blue and increase image sharpness.
SenoClaire can help with the early detection of breast cancer. “When cancer is identified and treated earlier, we know women have a better rate of survival,” said Daniel Kopans, senior radiologists, breast imaging department of radiology, Massachusetts General Hospital.
