GE Healthcare is the sole provider of FDA-approved ultrasound technology for use as a supplemental screening for women with dense breast tissue. From its remarkable architecture to its advanced imaging algorithms, Invenia ABUS 2.0 is engineered for automated screening. Besides increased detection, the Invenia ABUS 2.0 is designed for reproducibility, ease of use, and both patient and operator comfort.

cSound Imaging

Invenia ABUS 2.0 uses the powerful cSound^™ Imageformer, a software-based graphics processor, that provides a repeatable and operator-independent acquisition method to achieve consistent, high-quality results. cSound imaging allows significantly more data to be collected and used to create every image. Traditional hand-held ultrasound parameters such as focal zones and gain are automatically optimized. Because no image manipulation is required, high image quality is consistent from operator to operator with the touch of a button.

Intelligent imaging algorithms

Advanced algorithms automate the imaging process to help provide remarkable image quality and reproducibility from user to user, including: tissue equalization, nipple shadow compensation, breast border detection and chest wall detection. These are all designed to eliminate the distractions, and focus the radiologist's attention on the most important data - the anatomy.

Comfort for operators and patients

The gentle shape of the Reverse Curve™ transducer follows the natural contour of the breast, providing patient comfort, even compression and full contact and helps ensure comprehensive coverage. Since no two women are identical, exams can be customized with programmable scan protocols, adjustable scan depths, and compression levels. The operator can also shorten scan time once breast tissue acquisition is complete.

Intuitive and streamlined reading

The Invenia Viewer is designed for fast, efficient workflow for reading and reporting, allowing radiologists to quickly review, interpret and archive patient exams. Based on Windows^®10 and powerful processing, the Invenia Viewer incorporates intuitive user interface icons and multiple viewing and hanging protocols, which can be customized by the user.

Invenia Viewer also provides the coronal view, which acts as a roadmap for evaluating the entire breast. This global perspective offers better visualization of architectural distortions and multifocal disease. Reconstructed 2-mm-thick coronal slices display constant orientation and location from the nipple, making it easy to evaluate the breast from the skin line to the chest wall. Correlations with other projections and planes are easily achieved.
