Why Upgrade From 2D to 3D Mammography?

Still using a 2D Mammography system? No doubt
youre wondering if its time to make the leap to
a 3D system. The experts at Atlantis
Worldwide2D-3D mamooct have put together this
list of reasons why now is the perfect time to
make the shift. 3D mammography was approved by
the FDA in 2011 and has become the standard of
care within hospitals, physicians offices and
imaging centers.

During 2015, more and more insurance companies
began paying for these 3D scans since studies
show it to be more accurate than traditional 2D
mammography in early detection of breast
cancer. Today, both patients and referring
practitioners ask for and expect 3D studies,
which is a compelling reason to upgrade from your
2D mammography system to a 3D one. Another
compelling reason to upgrade to a 3D mammography
system is the lower x-ray dosage for patients.
For example, Hologics C-View software offers
early detection while minimizing the radiation
dosed patients experience during a scan. The
C-View feature is available on some Hologic
Dimensions 3D Tomo units that have a 1.8.3
software level or higher.

Another good reason to upgrade is the recent bump
in reimbursement dollars for offering 3D studies.
To expedite your return on investment, you could
purchase a refurbished 3D mammography system,
instead of a new system. Another consideration
is that many mammography machines are running on
a Windows 7 platform. Yet, IT departments are
moving to Windows 10 to increase security. Win10
3D unites are now showing up on the secondary
market. The only way to upgrade a current system
from win7 to win10 is OEM. Should your 3D
mammography system run on win7, your only option
for an upgrade is OEM. If you have a 2D
mammography system and want to move up to a 3D
system that runs Win10, a smart choice would be
to find a refurbished or pre-owned system.

Perhaps the best reason of all to purchase a
refurbished 3D mammography system is
financialyou can save 500,000-100,000 if you
buy a refurbished system instead of a new system.
And you could probably find a buyer for your
current 2D system on the preowned market.

Talk To An Expert The team at Atlantis Worldwide
can help you determine if the time is right to
make the leap to a 3D mammography system and
whether your system can be sold on the secondary
market. Weve been helping healthcare facilities
save money and still get the performance they
want by buying refurbished medical imaging
equipment for more than 30 years. Wed love to
help you. Contact Us Today!
