Breast CT scanner
Koning Corporation’s Koning Breast CT (KBCT) system and KBCT-guided biopsy bracket have received FDA approval. The company says that it is the first 3-D breast CT scanner on the market that images the whole breast in a single scan without requiring compression. The procedure is more comfortable than mammography because the breast isn’t compressed and less radiation is administered to the patient since only the breast is exposed to the X-rays, according to a 2014 FDA statement.
