Fuji Clear View 1M CR Reader

Fuji “ClearView-1m” 1. Introduction and Context The document introduces the ClearView-1m, a high-resolution digital mammography system developed by Fujifilm, a company with over twenty years of experience in early breast cancer detection. Fujifilm has pioneered digital mammography since 1983, continuously enhancing its women’s health products through research and development with global feedback. 2. Technology and Features of the ClearView-1m Dual-Side Reading Technology: Like its counterpart, the ClearView-CSm, the ClearView-1m employs dual-side reading technology to process X-ray information from both sides of the imaging plate (IP) simultaneously, significantly enhancing spatial resolution with a 50-micron sampling capability. Capacity and Ergonomics: Designed with…

3. Applications and Flexibility

  • Digital Conversion: The ClearView-1m facilitates easy conversion of mammography units to digital, ideally suited for in-room placement to allow the technologist to remain in the exam room.
  • Multi-Modality and Centralized Use: Beyond mammography, the system can process standard plates for general radiographic procedures, making it versatile for digital radiographic applications and particularly valuable in clinics where a single FCR reader can manage both high-definition digital mammography and general digital radiographic images.

4. Advanced Image Processing

  • Dynamic Range Control (DRC): Enhances the visibility of dense and soft tissues by amplifying or reducing image density and contrast.
  • Multi-objective Frequency Processing (MFP): Selectively applies varying degrees of edge enhancement processing to each individual breast structure depending on size to improve image quality.
  • Pattern Enhancement Processing for Mammography (PEM): Detects and enhances the visibility of minute structural information within the breast, such as microcalcifications, making them easier to visualize.
