TriMed Staff | | Health Imaging | Practice Management
Praxisgemeinschaft in Kapuzinerkarree, a large private radiology institute in Aachen, Germany, has ordered Sectra's new digital mammography system, Sectra MicroDose Mammography.

Sectra MicroDose Mammography is a digital system that delivers a significantly low radiation to patients during imaging, the company said. The system's performance is due to the ergonomic design and the new digital detector that enables dramatically reduced radiation doses without compromising image quality, Sectra said.
