New Delhi: An advanced digital breast cancer detecting machine with the capability to see lesions in breasts with much more clarity was unveiled in the national capital yesterday.
The mammography machine ‘Amulet’ by Fuji films is claimed to be India’s first low dose resolution system.
Speaking at the launch, Bharatiya Janata Party leader Sushma Swaraj said: “Every woman should be aware about ever growing breast cancer and need to get mammography done to detect the cancer and fight it.”
This machine would prove helpful in the fight against the disease as it uses artificial intelligence algorithms to assist the radiologist in detecting abnormalities that cannot be normally seen with naked eyes.
“With the help of 50 micron resolution system, we have the capability to see the lesions in breasts with much more clarity than ever before,” said Harsh Mahajan of Mahajan Imaging.
Diagnosis with the machine will not cost more will continue to be around Rs.3,000 per person.
