50° Wide-Angle TomosynthesisSuperior by design.
Highly valuable tomosynthesis is only possible with a 50⁰ Wide-Angle
In breast care, screening programs are on the rise. However, there’s no global standard for how screening should be performed. While 2D mammography is the standard screening technology in nearly all countries, tomosynthesis is beginning to grow into the screening space. At Siemens Healthineers, we know that with 50° you realize the full potential of tomosynthesis.
With our 50° Wide-Angle Tomosynthesis, we provide a superior, highly accurate method for detecting cancers and facilitating a reliable diagnosis. This will result in a significant change for breast care professionals, for radiologists, and – most importantly – for the many women and their families personally affected by breast cancer. We stand for tomosynthesis that is:
How our 50⁰ Wide-Angle Tomosynthesis works
Benefit from 50° and 25 projections
Watch how this technology works and find out, why tomosynthesis is needed to overcome the challenges of overlapping tissues or masking.
Patient-centric
Sustain her loyalty – with personalized dose and compression
The success of screening programs largely depends on patient acceptance. We designed our tomosynthesis with a positive patient experience in mind. With our 50⁰ Wide-Angle Tomosynthesis, we enable superior cancer detection1 with the right dose and compression for every woman.
In breast care, women have high expectations. They demand:
- comfortable, safe and efficient examinations
- reliable and quick results
Economic
Drive efficient screening – with up to 10 exams per hour and faster reading4
Efficiency is needed throughout the diagnostic process: from patient positioning to acquisition, and from reading to distribution of results.
Now, with ~6-minute examination slots, 50⁰ Wide-Angle Tomosynthesis is ready for efficient screening, enabling you to schedule up to 10 examinations per hour. Your patients benefit from uninterrupted acquisition with our optimized 50° TomoFlow examinations. This gives you more time for what matters most – your clients and patients.

Studies/Whitepapers
50° Wide-Angle Tomosynthesis provides superior cancer detection
A study conducted by Dr. D. Georgian-Smith et al. shows: 50° Wide-Angle Tomosynthesis 2-view DBT alone has a higher diagnostic accuracy than 2-view FFDM.
What's new with 50° Wide-Angle Tomosynthesis?
Insight 2D
Our synthetic mammogram, Insight 2D, offers breast imagers FFDM-like image impression. This allows you to perform fast prior comparison and easy breast density evaluation without the added dose of an additional 2D examination. Insight 2D eases the transition from FFDM to tomosynthesis as it takes the 2D viewing and reading habits of radiologists into account.
