Under this original equipment manufacturer (OEM) agreement, Toshiba will offer the Sentinelle Vanguard T-Series, 1.5T, eight channel tabletop breast coils for Vantage Atlas and Vantage Titan, through its North American direct sales channels.
Toshiba will be integrating this system into its radiance plus breast imaging suite. Access for breast positioning and intervention is optimized with the Sentinelle Vanguard’s patient support design, the two companies said.
Sentinelle said that its variable coil geometry optimizes coil positioning which can result in improved signal-to-noise ratio, significantly increasing the image quality.
Cameron Piron, president and CEO of Sentinelle, said: “Sentinelle’s partnership with Toshiba, an innovator in breast MRI, will increase patient accessibility to MRI technology and the early detection of breast cancer. Toshiba’s commitment to improving the patient experience and ultimately, to delivering better health outcomes through improved imaging, is clearly a strong fit with Sentinelle’s guiding philosophies.”
