Hologic showcased Selenia
Breast tomosynthesis, SecurView
workstations, the Discovery
QDR Series and Insight C-Arm.
The Hologic exhibit featured the newly enhanced SeleniaTM, the most popular digital mammography platform on the market today, and SecurViewDXTM diagnostic workstations which work together to form an efficient digital mammography suite.
Selenia uses capture technology that delivers clear, detailed images offering the highest degree of diagnostic confidence to support radiologists in the early detection of breast cancer.

Selenia FFDM
Selenia Breast tomosynthesis can alleviate the challenges created by overlapping breast tissue in a traditional mammogram. With Selenia tomosynthesis, a series of images are generated and digitally reconstructed. This creates high-resolution, cross sectional 3-D images that can be viewed and manipulated on a workstation. Each slice demonstrates superior clarity because the tissue above or below isn’t present to confuse the image.
SecurView workstations let the radiologist review and interpret images with total interactive ease. Images and annotations flow freely between the technologist and radiologist. SecurView can display digital mammograms from any vendor, locate regions of interest using sophisticated CAD tools and view current and prior mammograms alongside breast images from MRI, PET and ultrasound with seamless file sharing.
DigitalNow™ is a technology in-progress that allows mammography departments to digitize priors and archive to PACS for use in a soft-copy viewing environment.
The Discovery QDR Series Bone Densitometer
The Discovery QDR Series bone densitometer provides crisp, clear high-resolution vertebral images allowing greater accuracy and diagnostic confidence. By combining bone density measurements with High Definition Instant Vertebral Assessment (IVA-HD), Discovery provides the most comprehensive evaluation of fracture risk available today. Building on Discovery's technology of acquiring multiple views of the femur at different angles, Hologic is collaborating with The Johns Hopkins University to utilize this low dose acquisition to construct a three 3-D volumetric model of the femur as a strong predictor of fracture risk. Caution: Limited by US law to investigational use. The Discovery system is also now cleared for use as a measure of the possibility of coronary heart disease, stroke, and other forms of cardiovascular disease in addition to its use in osteoporosis assessment and vertebral analysis.
Extremity MRI
Hologic Skeletal Health
The InSight™ mini c-arm is the only flat-panel display that can be physically extended. It allows for orthopedic surgeons to perform minimally invasive surgical procedures of the extremities.
