Nine more healthcare systems will provide 3D mammography imaging with installation of FUJIFILM's Aspire Cristalle

STAMFORD, Conn., Feb. 26, 2018 – FUJIFILM Medical Systems U.S.A., Inc., a leading provider of diagnostic imaging products with a comprehensive portfolio of digital radiography (DR) and women’s health solutions, today announced nine of the initial healthcare systems across the United States which have selected Fujifilm’s ASPIRE Cristalle mammography system with 3D imaging or Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) option to improve their diagnostic imaging capabilities and women’s health patient outcomes.

“Every day, women turn to mammography centers to know for sure whether they are healthy, at risk, or in immediate danger,” said Rob Fabrizio, Director of Strategic Marketing, Digital Radiography and Women’s Health, FUJIFILM Medical Systems U.S.A., Inc. “And every day, more radiologists turn to Fujifilm for innovative imaging and technology they can trust.”

The ASPIRE Cristalle with DBT combines state-of-the-art, Hexagonal Close Pattern (HCP) capture technology and intelligent image processing, optimizing dose and contrast based on individual breast composition. The result is low dose and fast acquisition of exceptional images for all breast types. In addition, patients can experience a noticeable improvement in comfort during procedures with Fujifilm’s patented, flexible comfort paddle design, which provides gentle and even compression that is designed to adapt to patient curves.
