Chennai, November 11, 2026: VS Hospitals has introduced an advanced 2D digital mammography system that combines high-resolution imaging with low-dose technology to enhance the accuracy and effectiveness of breast cancer screening and diagnosis.
The AMULET SOPHINITY system from Fujifilm features a high-resolution detector with a pixel size of 50 microns, enabling detailed visualization of breast tissue, including tiny micro-calcifications that may indicate early abnormalities.
Designed with a strong emphasis on patient comfort, the system features an ergonomic design, flexible positioning support, intelligent breast compression and automatic decompression to help minimise discomfort during the examination. Its intelligent exposure control automatically adjusts X-ray exposure according to breast composition, supporting appropriate exposure levels while maintaining image quality.
The advanced 2D digital mammography system captures high-resolution images of breast tissue, helping radiologists examine breast structures and identify potential abnormalities, including small micro-calcifications. The system also features AI-based positioning support to assist with accurate patient positioning and consistent image acquisition.
Another key advantage is its fast-imaging capability, taking approximately 5 seconds for standard image acquisition and 12 seconds for high-resolution imaging. This helps streamline the examination process while delivering detailed breast images for radiological evaluation.
Speaking at the launch, Prof. Dr. S. Subramanian, Chairman & Managing Director, VS Hospitals, said, “Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among women. Early detection plays a crucial role in improving treatment outcomes, and mammography is an important screening tool for identifying breast abnormalities at an early stage. That is why we are introducing this advanced digital mammography system at our hospital. We believe this technology will strengthen our breast imaging services and encourage more women to come forward for regular screening and early detection.”
For encouraging more women to prioritise breast health, the hospital will be offering free mammogram screening to underprivileged women throughout November 2026. People can reach out at 7448850500.
