SenoBright TM Contrast-Enhanced Spectral Mammography Get a confident diagnosis for your patients faster TM Trademark of General Electric
Mammography is a reliable tool, but has limitations Dense breast tissue can overlap with lesions Lesions are not always visible with x-ray Interpretation of images can vary among radiologists Source: Kolb et al. Radiology 2002; 225:165-175 Dromain C., et al, Breast Cancer Research, 2012; 14(3): R94
Complementary techniques are therefore required Limited availability of other exams can increase time to diagnosis Delays can increase patient anxiety Other imaging modalities such as Breast MRI can be cost-prohibitive, take a long time to access, and require long exam times, or have highly operator dependent results 3 Source : Dromain C., et al, Breast Cancer Research, 2012; 14(3): R94
Get a confident diagnosis for your patients faster Enhance your Breast Care pathway with SenoBright Increase your diagnostic confidence Localize known or suspicious lesions with iodine contrast Improve your patients’ experience Reduce patients’ anxiety by solving the case at the same time, same location and with the same equipment Reduce your diagnostic costs Benefit from an affordable complementary exam that reduces unnecessary exams & frees-up time on your other imaging systems. Mammography SenoBright Contrast Enhanced Spectral Mammography (CESM) is used as an adjunct following mammography and/or ultrasound exams to help localize a known or suspected lesion.
How does SenoBright work ? Contrast agent highlights areas of unusual blood flow SenoBright uses multiple x-ray exposures to reduce background signal, effectively highlighting contrast enhanced areas Two images per view are provided: Low Energy image uses standard mammographic techniques and represents tissue density The Recombined image is a contrast-enhanced image in exactly the same position 5
How to easily implement SenoBright in your clinical routine? 6 Less than 7 minutes exam after inconclusive mammography & ultrasound S tandard intravenous iodine injection performed in your radiology department Acquisition of the usual 4 mammographic views on the same mammography system 1 Install 2 Inject 3 Acquire 4 Review
Increase your diagnostic confidence High sensitivity for breast cancer diagnosis High specificity to reduce false-positives and help prevent unnecessary biopsies and surgeries An alternative imaging method to MRI when MRI availability is limited and for patients for whom MRI is contraindicated A new & accurate diagnostic exam Leverage a new problem-solving exam for inconclusive mammography High Sensitivity High Specificity
Improve your patients’ experience Don’t let your patients wait any longer to get a diagnosis! With SenoBright , you can give your patients a confident diagnosis the same day, in the same place, in less than 7 minutes after the inconclusive mammogram, with no limitation such as waiting time, contraindications or long exam time Reduce the anxiety* & release your patient immediately in case of negative exam *Hobbs et al. Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology 59 (2015) 300–305
Reduce your diagnostic costs SenoBright is a cost-effective alternative diagnostic exam The high specificity of SenoBright helps you to reduce unnecessary biopsies & surgeries Free-up your MRI time for more demanding cases or other procedures $ Biopsies
Contrast-Enhanced Spectral Mammography helps to improve breast cancer diagnostics A hospital and university health center in the Midwest United States is using SenoBright , contrast-enhanced spectral mammography (CESM), to help obtain quick and definitive diagnoses . Clinicians have found the SenoBright technique from GE Healthcare to be an effective alternative to MRI as a follow-up to ambiguous mammograms, which are common in women with dense or nodular breast tissue. 10
