Hologic features its Selenia Dimensions, including Selenia Breast tomosynthesis, that may alleviate the challenges created by overlapping breast tissue in a traditional mammogram by presenting a slice-by-slice view of the breast.

With Selenia Dimensions, a series of images are generated and digitally reconstructed. This creates high-resolution, cross sectional 3D images that can be viewed and manipulated on a workstation.

Selenia Dimensions 2D delivers:

-Image acquisition and simultaneous display of priors integrated into one intuitive acquisition workstation
- An ergonomic gantry and acquisition workstation designed with productivity and simplicity in mind
- An advanced selenium direct capture detector with a fast cycle time for excellent image quality and more efficient workflow
- A flexible platform that can be configured for 3D breast imaging when and if breast tomosynthesis is approved by the FDA

Caution: Tomosynthesis is limited by U.S. law to investigational use.
