The C-View software option for Selenia Dimensions tomosynthesis systems streamlines 3D (breast tomosynthesis) exams by using 3D data to generate 2D images, thus eliminating the 2D exposure. A 3D exam with C-View software offers a number of advantages including:

Improved Patient Care

  A patient dose similar to a 2D only exam.1
  With a faster scan time - less than 4 seconds per view – there is less compression time for patient,2 improving patient comfort and lowering risk of movement.
 
Improved Outcomes

  Superior clinical performance compared to 2D alone.1
  Increased diagnostic accuracy and reduced false-positive recall rates compared to 2D alone.1
 
The addition of the C-View software adds to the growing portfolio of Hologic 3D mammography options, each designed for improved performance and optimal workflow. With no additional add-ons, the software offers a simple user interface allowing you to easily add 3D procedures as needed.

Hologic 3D provides a superior mammogram.3
Hologic 3D screening finds invasive cancer 40% earlier than 2D alone4-6while also reducing false-positive recalls by up to 40%.6-7
