Environmental Benefits
GE's digital mammography systems eliminate the need for water in film processing used by analog mammography systems. Replacing a GE analog mammography system that processes 27,400 films per year with a GE digital mammography system can save up to 8,000 gallons (31,000 L) of water annually.
Operating Benefits
By allowing rapid image acquisition and display, GE's digital mammography systems improve patient throughput by approximately 55% compared to GE's film-based mammography systems.
