GE HealthCare Unveils Mammography System to Improve Patient-Centered Breast Care

What You Should Know:

– GE HealthCare has announced the launch of its new Pristina Via™ mammography system, designed to improve the screening experience for both technologists and patients. This innovative system, debuting at the Radiological Society of North America’s 2024 Annual Meeting, addresses the growing need for efficient workflows and personalized care in breast imaging.

– GE HealthCare developed Pristina Via™ based on extensive feedback from mammography technologists. The company conducted numerous interviews and observations to understand the challenges faced by technologists and design a system that addresses their needs.

Addressing the Technologist Shortage

The healthcare industry is facing a significant shortage of technologists, with vacancy rates in radiology increasing dramatically in recent years. This shortage, coupled with the steady demand for mammography services, has put immense pressure on imaging centers to optimize workflows and maximize efficiency.

Streamlining Workflows with Pristina Via™

Pristina Via™ incorporates advanced features to streamline the mammography workflow and enhance patient care:

  • Zero-click acquisition: Enables faster and more seamless image acquisition.
  • Rapid image processing: Eliminates wait times between exposures, allowing technologists to work at their own pace.
  • Vendor-neutral prior image comparison: Facilitates efficient comparison of previous exams for faster assessments.
  • Lowest radiation dose: Minimizes radiation exposure for patients across all breast thicknesses.

These features allow technologists to focus on delivering high-quality, patient-centered care without sacrificing efficiency or accuracy. By reducing repetitive tasks and streamlining workflows, Pristina Via™ empowers technologists to provide a more personalized and comfortable experience for patients.

“At GE HealthCare, we are dedicated to addressing our customers’ needs by delivering solutions that enhance the experience for both patients and healthcare professionals,” said Jyoti Gupta, PhD – President & CEO for Women’s Health and X-ray at GE HealthCare. “Pristina Via represents a significant evolution in our patient focused Senographe Pristina platform which was designed by women for women. With the new in-room workflow, Pristina Via minimizes laborious tasks and provides technologists with the gift of time to prioritize what matters most: compassionate, patient-centered care.”
