Open design for superior accessibility
Excellent ergonomic conditions exist for both operator and patient, even during biopsy procedures. The patient can be examined in standing, sitting or recumbent position.

Generous gantry free-space
The 65-cm gantry opening (SID) allows easy patient positioning and accommodates popular biopsy devices. For example, the minimally-invasive vacuum-assisted Mammotome core biopsy system can be mounted in the vertical position in the stereotactic device – in line with the direction of compression for the shortest distance and greatest accuracy in reaching the lesion.
Flexible configuration
The stand as well as the generator with the radiation protection shield are stand-alone. To enable flexible applications, we offer the generator console separately as a special accessory.

Isocentricity
Motorized isocentric movement offers precision and time-savings when positioning patients. The isocentric movements of the swivel arm help to maintain the proper height between projections. In addition, you can change between angle settings – every angle from cc to the inverted 180° – without readjusting the height.
Pivoting Buckys
The unique dual Bucky design enables quick and easy switching between 18x24 and 24x30 cm formats. When the object table is changed, the appropriate collimation automatically pre-selects. Additionally, either object table can be manually replaced with the stereotactic device or magnification table.

OpComp automatically determines the optimal compression for maximum image quality
OpComp senses breast thickness and “compressibility”. It compresses as long as the breast is soft and pliable, then stops - precisely when image quality is maximized.
OpComp spares your patient unnecessary discomfort and enables a consistent and reproducible compression technique.
