Key benefits:

  • Easy detection of tiny abnormalities
  • Fast & efficient workflow
  • Comfortable reading sessions

Context

MEDICON's commitment to excellence in breast imaging is evident in their adoption of advanced technologies and methodologies. Dr. Šírová, who has worked in breast screening programs in Sweden, Great Britain, and Ireland, brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the institution. The team at MEDICON includes oncologists, surgeons, pathologists, physiotherapists, and psychologists, all working together to provide comprehensive care.

Challenge

As a highly specialized center, MEDICON requires cutting-edge technology to maintain its high standards of diagnostic accuracy and efficiency. They work with 2D as well as 3D mammography, highly qualitative ultrasound machines, and reliable workstations for accurate results. The team previously used Barco workstations with resolutions ranging from 5 to 12 megapixels. The primary challenge was to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of mammography evaluations, particularly in detecting tiny abnormalities such as microcalcifications and architectural distortions.

Solution

During the recent EUSOBI conference, Dr. Šírová was introduced to the Barco Coronis OneLook diagnostic display. Impressed by its capabilities, MEDICON decided to install the workstation in their largest screening centers. The Coronis OneLook features a 32-megapixel display, high brightness, and advanced functionalities like a touch bar, RapidFrame and I-Luminate, which significantly enhance image clarity and diagnostic confidence.

Dr. Šírová noted, "From the first moment, I was amazed by the Coronis OneLook. This display solution can move our work forward, reducing the time needed to compare images."

Results

The Coronis OneLook’s larger display allows radiologists to view multiple images simultaneously at full resolution without scrolling, reducing the time required for comparisons. "The bigger display can reduce our time because we don't need to scroll between different studies," Dr. Šírová explained.

In addition, the display’s high resolution and brightness enable the detection of very tiny abnormalities, crucial for early-stage breast cancer diagnosis. The RapidFrame functionality ensures sharp 3D images without blur.

Also, the Coronis OneLook’s advanced features, such as I-Luminate and SpotView, help radiologists distinguish between normal and abnormal tissue more effectively. This leads to more confident evaluations.

Conclusion

The Coronis OneLook monitor helps make the MEDICON breast radiology team’s work more efficient, accurate, and enjoyable. Dr. Šírová and her team are confident that this advanced display technology will continue to support their mission of providing top-tier breast imaging and diagnostics.

Even after longer reading periods, I didn't feel any fatigue, and my perception of images remained at the same level.
