All MAMMOVIEWERSs
are supplied with a standard 50 patient capacity (frame) film belt.
We can increase this number to 75 or 90 on all models. Each model
is customized at time of purchase to suit your facility's needs.
We do not add those annoying bands that interfere with your search
for micro calcifications. Upper and lower films are less than
1 inch apart to facilitate film comparisons. Our single belt design
assures that a patient's films always move together.
On March
1, 2003, we introduced a brand new MAMMOVIEWER we call the F-series.
This unit has several new features, not the least of which is the
Next Group. The Next Group addition is of significant value, since
we have found that most sites generally set up various portions
of our fully-customizable film belt for differing sizes of mammo/general
purpose films, and it is necessary at times to scroll through numerous
empty frames (which are brightly lit and annoying when vacant).
With this new feature, you simply press one button, lights go off,
belt automatically scrolls to the first frame of the next film size
section, and lights come back on. This results in a huge time savings,
as well as affording more eye comfort for the technologists and
the radiologists. What a great feature this is.
We are
also introducing the new FrameFinder. The new FrameFinder
will allow the user to automatically input a particular frame number
on the new Membrane Switch Touch Pad, and scroll to that frame with
this simple programming. It is now available on all new models.
There will also be field upgrade kits available for existing units.
We can send someone from here to do the upgrade for basic travel
expenses and the price of the kit. The FrameFinder feature
is an option for all new F-series units.
Older non
F-series models can be field upgraded to include the Next
Group feature as well as the FrameFinder. This can only be
done as part of the FrameFinder package. The Next Group,
which will be standard on all MAMMOVIEWERS, will not be offered
in a stand-alone field upgrade. Field upgrades will include a prescribed
fee for the package and out-of-pocket travel expenses.
Each bank
of the MAMMOVIEWER is on a separate light switch, allowing you to
turn one bank off while viewing the other. Dimmer controlled lights
vary intensity from 1800-6500NIT, much higher than the ACR's recommendation
of 3000NIT. The 60,000Hz fluorescent light system reduces eye fatigue.
With our
optional retractable center shelf, you can get extremely close to
the screen without bending forward, and your knees still fit under
the console. Film movement is activated with the hand switches,
or the foot switch.
