Digital Mammography and
Synapse®
PACS
Wayne General Hospital
is pleased to announce that
the latest in digital mammography technology is now available. With the
installation of Fuji’s Computed Radiography for
Mammography (FCRm) system, developed by FUJIFILM Medical Systems USA, Inc.,
Wayne General Hospital is proud to offer this digital mammography capability.
An American Cancer Society study showed that
mammography screening reduced breast cancer deaths by 63%. Now digital
mammography increases our ability to detect even small cancers
earlier—especially in women under 50; women who are pre-menopausal or in its
beginning stages; and women with dense breasts. Digital technology lets
you and your doctor see the image quickly. With a mouse click, your
radiologist can enlarge and enhance specific areas, for prompt diagnosis and
effective treatment. No matter what kind,
get a mammography. For the latest in digital clarity, get it here.
Call your doctor for details.
Along with the digital mammography technology Wayne General
Hospital also recently installed
Synapse®, a state-of-the-art, radiology image and information network system
that will dramatically streamline hospital operations and enhance patient care.
Developed by FUJIFILM Medical Systems USA, Inc., a leader in medical imaging
technology, Synapse is a Picture Archiving and
Communication System (PACS), that permits the ability to electronically
view, transmit and store diagnostic images, such as those generated by MRI, CT
scan, ultrasound and x-ray. Rest assured Wayne General Hospital is
committed to providing you with the best possible care.
