Frequently Asked Questions About The Computer Tomography Laser Mammography (CTLM®)

Q. What is CT Laser Mammography?

A CT-like scanner, but its energy source for imaging is a laser diode beam in place of ionizing radiation such as is found in conventional x-ray mammography or CT scanners.

Q. How Is A Patient Examined?

A patient lies face down on the scanning table with one breast suspended in the scanning aperture. The laser beam sweeps 360 degrees around the breast starting from the chest wall moving forward until the entire breast is scanned. The data is acquired by our patented array of specialized detectors, where it is reconstructed by our proprietary computed algorithms to create three-dimensional cross sectional images of the breast. The examination takes approximately 12 minutes to perform and requires no breast compression.

Q. Can The CTLM Be Used In Place Of A Screening Mammogram?

Not currently, the CTLM is being positioned as an adjunct to conventional breast screening modalities .

Q. Is There Any Special Requirement Necessary Prior To A CTLM Exam?

No, an examination can be performed during anytime of the month or day and does not require special preparation of any kind.

Q. How Long Will It Take For My Results?

The CTLM reconstructs the image while the scanning is in process.

Q. Can A Patient Be Examined By The CTLM Regularly?

Yes, since it does not expose the patient to ionizing radiation a person can be scanned as often as needed.
