The SoftVue TM Experience - Delphinus Medical Technologies

Gentler Option

As a 3D whole breast ultrasound system, SoftVue™ brings a safer and softer imaging solution, introducing a new approach to imaging the entire breast using sound and water. The exam is private and discreet, the breast is not openly seen during the scanning process and there is no compression and no radiation.

At Delphinus, we are working to assist physicians gain accurate information to better detect breast cancer where it can be the most challenging, in dense breast tissue. While developing better imaging science, we are striving for a better breast imaging experience for women.

SoftVue™ is PMA approved by the FDA indicated for dense breast cancer screening as an adjunct to mammography.

SoftVue^TMScan Sequence

Step One

Patient lies on her stomach on the padded-table top and lowers one breast into the warm water of the imaging chamber

Step Two

The Sequr™ breast interface engages with the front of her breast to center, shape, and steady it

Step Three

The scan is activated, and the ring transducer moves along the breast, imaging all levels

Step Four

Patient raises up and places second breast into warm water imaging chamber and engages with Sequr breast interface

Step Five

The scan is activated, and the ring transducer moves along the second breast, imaging all levels

Step Six

When the scan sequence is complete, the patient raises up, dries off, and steps off of SoftVue™

Enhanced Safety

SoftVue uses water and sound to capture a 360-degree image of the breast. This offers women a safer and gentler option that does not compress the breast and delivers no radiation during the imaging process.

Especially Dense Breasts

Dense breast tissue and cancer can look similar on mammograms, making cancers harder to detect in women with dense breasts using x-ray alone. Unlike mammography, SoftVue™ uses sound properties to detect cancerous masses within dense breasts.

Exceptional Comfort

Subtle recessed lighting contours the SoftVue™ system, with a rainbow of selectable colors to match décor and mood, while softly-curved arches for hand placements offer a secure and easy approach to SoftVue™.

Unparalleled Technology

SoftVue™ features a padded table-top allowing for comfortable positioning as a woman lies on her stomach in preparation for breast imaging. Once on her stomach, the breast is immersed in warm water. A soft gel guide then engages with the front of the breast to center, shape and steady it during the procedure, maximizing tissue access and optimizing the breast profile during image capture.

The exam takes 2-4 minutes per breast, and when finished, a woman simply lifts up and dries off her breast.

SoftVue™ incorporates the use of water and sound waves to create an image of the breast. The breast is immersed in water then a circular imaging ring that emits soundwaves moves up the breast creating images doctors to scan for potential cancerous tumors. No radiation is used so the exam can be available to women of all ages, and has no frequency limits as radiation-based imaging tests do. SoftVue™ is PMA approved by the FDA indicated for dense breast cancer screening as an adjunct to mammography.
