The missing link between analog and digital mammography viewing solved with Rollux D
The missing link between analog and digital mammography viewing solved with Rollux D
| Radiology News - Mammography |
Broadwest Corporation is introducing the Rollux D - the missing link between analog and digital mammography viewing.
The importance of workflow efficiency in the transition from analog to digital film is vital to the success of any mammo practice. "If your workflow is interrupted with this transition then I think losing business and not providing the needs to the community will probably be affected," says Dr. Douglas Winjum, of Lincoln Radiology.
The Rollux D can be used initially as a film-only viewer with monitors added after going digital. With the Rollux's auto-masking software the backlight to the monitors is controlled and minimized. Close proximity to the LCD monitors and frames promotes accurate viewing and a comfortable reading environment.
The Rollux D has 200 half frames above the LCD monitors for a high volume, ergonomic reading station. These frames accommodate six of the 18x24cm films or four across of the 24x30cm mammos. Radiologists enjoy interpreting both modalities in the same plane without having to turn.
"Ergonomics is huge with my radiologists. I hear about things all the time when they’re not as comfortable as they’d like to be.
"With the Rollux D we’ve never had to deal with films that are of substandard quality….not being able to see them because the lighting was fine and the masking works great,” says Steve Swanson, radiology administrator.
