Save 14% on Serena Bright™ Contrast-guided Biopsy Solution.
Serena Bright™ is Contrast-Enhanced Spectral Mammography (CESM) guided biopsy for Senographe Pristina™ and utilises contrast-spectral mammography to clearly target and biopsy lesions without leaving the mammography suite. Serena Bright™ combines the clarity of contrast-enhanced imaging with the versatility of our Serena biopsy platform for a clear path forward for patient care.
The Serena Bright™ option provides the three-dimensional location of target lesions, using information obtained from stereotactic pairs of two-dimensional X-ray images acquired with CESM under the same breast compression. This information provides guidance for a variety of minimally invasive or interventional procedures in the breast such as vacuum assisted biopsy, core biopsy, pre-surgical localisation (e.g. hookwire), and fine needle aspirations (FNA).
CESM-biopsy application is indicated for patients with suspicious lesions only seen with certainty when imaged with a contrast agent or that do not have a definite correlate on mammography or ultrasound.
Serena Bright™ enables providers to see lesions using contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) and sample with certainty. This allows patients to undergo breast biopsy exams using the same mammography equipment, in a familiar setting, with familiar staff, to help relieve some of the stress of a biopsy procedure.
Features and Benefits
- Fast procedure – CEM biopsy can be done within 15 minutes.
- Patient preferred – two out of three patients prefer CEM to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).
- Lower cost – MRI diagnostic with biopsy is 51% more costly than CEM diagnostic and biopsy.
- Ergonomics designed for technologist – user can switch between standard mammography and Spectral Mammography mode during the same exam session.
- The near silence of Pristina™ and its biopsy positioner provides a calm
environment to the patient. - Remote angulation reduces technologist workflow during the procedure,
reducing exam time. - A laser light is included to serve as a guidance aid for an accurate anesthesia
injection. - Designed to operate intuitively in the three axes for targeting (X,Y,Z), the
touchscreen may be placed on either side of the Serena™ system to match
the work space of the technologist / radiologist during the biopsy exam.
