Proven efficiency for routine screening – with Mammography
Many women are anxious about having a mammogram.
This is why it is a primary objective to make mammography screenings more comfortable by:
- slowing down the speed of the compression plate and automatically stopping it at the point of optimal compression for maximum image quality;
- offering the lowest possible dose of radiation, while providing excellent image quality;
- reducing waiting times for your patients before and during an examination thanks to an efficient workflow;
- and making patients feel more comfortable with an appealing system design.

In short: patient comfort may be increased with a solution like our latest MAMMOMAT Inspiration – offering functions such as Opdose®, SoftSpeed, Opcomp® or a direct-to-digital aSe detector.
The MAMMOMAT Inspiration’s MoodLight panel* can change color thanks to built-in LED diodes, starting a new era of mammography systems with a patient-friendly design.

And to reach women in rural regions with high-quality mammography screenings, Siemens relies on mobility and developed the Mammo-Trailer, which accommodates a whole mammography practice on wheels. This means comfortable surroundings, quick and mobile exams not far from home.
“MAMMOMAT Inspiration works fast, it is more ergonomical, and radiographers like it. The time between exposures is less than 27 seconds, and we are able to schedule 12 to 15* patients per hour, which is high throughput.”
