The Mammomat B.brilliant is the first completely redesigned mammography platform from Siemens Healthineers in over a decade. It includes new 3D image acquisition and image reconstruction technology as well as features for full-field digital mammography; breast biopsy; and titanium contrast-enhanced mammography. Building on the 50-degree wide-angle image acquisition capabilities that are the hallmark of Siemens Healthineers and offering the widest angle available, the Mammomat B.brilliant introduces PlatinumTomo 3D technology that enables this wide-angle tomosynthesis acquisition in under five seconds.¹ The system’s fast detector and new X-ray tube use flying focal-spot technology to visualize microcalcifications more clearly. New UltraHD image reconstruction technology reduces metal artifacts, crisply visualizes calcifications, and offers customizable image settings. The system also provides a synthetic 2D image with no additional radiation exposure to the patient, reducing the need for full-field digital mammography images. Other features improve patient comfort as well as enhance user workflow and ergonomics compared to the system’s predecessor, the Mammomat Revelation.
