As in existing MicroDose SI systems, MicroDose SI uses direct, digital photon-counting technology. This unique technology has created a paradigm shift in mammography, enabling high-dose efficiency that makes it possible to conduct exams with low radiation dose - without compromising image quality.

The MicroDose SI provides the same low dose as the MicroDose with an increase of up to 11 percent of the technical image quality.2 MicroDose SI provides industry-leading 50μ[<03BC>][<03BC>]m resolution and has shown great clinical performance, even in dense breasts. One customer reported the exquisite image quality of the MicroDose SI has allowed him to go down in dose compared to his MicroDose L30 by more than 30 percent and still achieve excellent image quality.
