Kodak Applies for FDA Approval for CR Mammography

Kodak has applied to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for approval of its CR system for mammography and the company is currently conducting clinical trials at several sites in the U.S. and Canada. The mammography feature captures mammography and general radiography exams with the same computed radiography (CR) platform. Capturing mammography images requires the use of specialised KODAK mammography cassettes and screens.

Kodak currently offers a broad portfolio of mammography solutions including CAD for mammography;

PACS that includes a KODAK CARESTREAM Mammography Workstation offering special display protocols and tools designed to enhance radiologists’ productivity; and a laser imaging system with special software for printing digital mammography images.
