Approved for sale in the U.S. by the FDA in 2006, FCRm presentsmammography providers with various equipment configuration combinations, froma centrally located multi-plate reader serving several rooms, to a singleplate reader installed right in the exam room. This system flexibility,combined with validated image quality and ease of use for technologists, hasmade FCRm particularly ideal for large screening facilities. These facilitiesrecognize the value of simultaneously transitioning all of their screeningrooms from analog to digital instead of being economically constrained to aroom-by-room conversion, or working in a less-than-optimal hybrid film/digitalenvironment.
