GE Senographe Pristina

GE Senographe Pristina – General Information

The GE Senographe Pristina is a mammography system developed with input from radiologists, technologists, and patients. It focuses on improving the experience during breast exams by addressing patient comfort, workflow efficiency, and image quality.

Designed with patient comfort in mind

It features a gantry with soft curves and ambient lighting. The design of the GE Senographe Pristina helps reduce anxiety during the exam process by creating a more welcoming environment.

• Rounded detector edges may reduce discomfort

• Soft armrests replace hand grips to help patients stay comfortable

• Flexible paddles adjust to various body types, including options for patients with implants or smaller breasts

Improved comfort during exams can support more accurate positioning and may reduce movement.

Supporting technologist workflow

The system makes it easier to position patients. The space under and behind the tube head is open, allowing for better access and movement during setup.

• Technologists can position patients while maintaining face-to-face communication

• The tube head moves away during MLO positioning, reducing obstruction

• Startup requires no daily calibration, and the system is ready within minutes

The acquisition console has a layout consistent with other GE Healthcare equipment, reducing the need for additional training for familiar users.

Image clarity for clinical evaluation

The GE Senographe Pristina provides 3D digital breast tomosynthesis imaging. It offers image quality suitable for identifying lesions and calcifications at the same dose as standard 2D mammography.

• ASIR DBT reduces in-plane and out-of-plane artifacts

• Dedicated algorithms improve the visualization of microcalcifications

• Image contrast can be adjusted in real time across six levels

Adaptable for future needs

The GE Senographe Pristina platform supports additional features such as contrast-enhanced spectral mammography, biopsy, and mobile deployment.

The Pristina focuses on practical improvements across patient care, technologist workflow, and radiologist assessment. Its design and features aim to support consistent, efficient, and clear mammography exams.
