Future ready
Philips MammoDiagnost VU digital workstation delivers efficient review, intuitive control and most importantly, customizable workflow to your busy radiologists.
Ongoing review of large numbers of mammograms requires the utmost efficiency. Every radiologist develops a set of personal preferences to handle the workload. Now Philips technology helps manage that process intuitively.
Streamlined workflow
The Philips MammoDiagnost VU is ready to support radiologists who review a large number of studies on a daily basis. Advanced features promote speed and efficiency with tangible workflow benefits.
- Automatic breast tissue alignment for easy inspection and comparison
- Dedicated keypad for one-touch handling: Immediate access to the most-used functions
- Independent double blind reading for advanced workflow management and swift workflow
- High loading performance: Patient exam switch in less than one second
- Mammography hangings with user-preferred review order
- Seamlessly integrates with Philips iSite PACS or any other vendors PACS
Ease of operation
Enhanced performance is characterized by keypad features that allow you to move easily through numerous readings. Switch between patient exams in less than a second, ‘walk’ through hangings with a single keystroke and apply necessary functions using ‘toggle’ linking.
Automatic alignment
Radiologists routinely align and compare left and right breast images to check for differences in appearance. A unique feature of the MammoDiagnost VU is its ability to do this automatically and in a quick, repetitive fashion.
“I was really surprised by the automatic breast tissue alignment,” says Dr. Schuur of St. Elisabeth Hospital in Tilburg, The Netherlands. “I have never seen this before. It’s the most natural way to compare mammograms.”
