Breast Health

Imagine a world where women no longer worry about breast cancer. At GE Healthcare we’re working to make it a reality.

Bringing together world-class expertise in medical imaging, therapeutics, and information technology, we are committed to leadership in breast health and helping you fight this deadly disease.

Imaging

Our unparalleled platform of industry leading imaging tools - including best-in-class mammography, robust magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and powerful ultrasound systems - allow you to follow the latest industry recommendations for breast cancer screening. But our imaging capabilities don't stop there. When you need imaging for staging, therapy planning and monitoring, GE Healthcare can provide you with world-class PET/CT and Nuclear Imaging capabilities.


Mammography

GE Healthcare is a leader in the field of mammography. The Senographe® Essential is the latest example of our pioneering digital mammography technology. It has the largest field-of-view on the market place and optimized file size for better data management, making it easier for you to provide the best possible care for your patients.


MRI

Magnetic resonance imaging has emerged as an advanced problem-solving tool to assist in diagnosing and staging disease as well as monitoring response to therapy. In addition, the American Cancer Society recently released recommendations for the use of MRI for screening women at increased risk for breast cancer. GE Healthcare offers you a robust breast MRI package for both 1.5 and 3T magnets including specially designed coils, VIBRANT software, and BREASE spectroscopy solutions optimized for breast imaging.


Ultrasound

Ultrasound is firmly established in the world of breast imaging, and is frequently used as an adjunct to screening mammography, image guided biopsies and evaluation of abnormalities. The LOGIQ® family of ultrasound systems gives you flexibility to determine how ultrasound will best fit in your practice. From the premium console systems to powerful compact products that allow you to take ultrasound to the patient, GE Healthcare has a solution for you.


PET/CT

PET/CT is a unique technology pioneered by GE Healthcare that allows you to simultaneously acquire both functional and molecular information. The Discovery™ family of PET/CT systems can assist you in staging recurrent or metastatic disease, therapy planning and monitoring response to therapy.


Nuclear Imaging

Nuclear imaging technologies play an important role after diagnosis of breast cancer. The Infinia™ nuclear imaging technology from GE Healthcare can help you to detect bony metastases in staging and primary follow-up.


Therapy tools

Radiation Therapy Planning

GE Healthcare provides you with a host of solutions in radiation therapy planning that truly impact the quality of your patient care. The Advantage 4D respiratory gating application, paired with our Discovery ST PET/CT scanner or LightSpeed RT16 wide-bore multi-slice CT scanner, help you to precisely plan radiation therapy and focus the treatment plan for breast tumors.


Bone Mineral Densitometry

Because bone loss is a frequent side affect for many patients, bone mineral densitometry is often used as part of the ongoing monitoring plan. GE Healthcare's industry leading bone assessment systems include the iDXA, Prodigy, DPX and portable Achilles systems and provide you options for incorporating BMD into your overall breast health program.
