ComfortGuide Display
More transparent processes during the examination
Patient and workflow information are always in sight on a screen at eye level – including next workflow steps, information on compression and system movement, breast thickness, and more.
- All patient information at hand
- Workflows displayed where you need them
- Receive information on the current and upcoming workflow steps
ComfortMove
Independent movement, easy patient access
ComfortMove aims to significantly reduce physical strain on radiographers caused by mammography examinations. Thanks to independent movement of the tube unit from the table, you can easily access your patient during the MLO positioning process – without having to bend under the tube unit. An additional work light and positioning laser provide even more support for accurate positioning.
- Easier and optimized patient positioning
- More freedom of movement for radiographers and patients
- Radiographers may avoid physical strain
Fixed face shield and a short scan time
Create more stability and comfort for patients
The transparent face shield lets your patients rest their headcomfortably during scans. And thanks to our scan time of no more than 5 seconds, patients get scanned extremely quickly.2,3
- Enhance patient comfort during tomosynthesis
- Get optimal images thanks to stabilized patient positioning
- Increase workflow speed

Insight 3D
The only rotating 3D mammogram
Freely adjust the rotation angle on your 3D mammogram to improve orientation. This allows for superior visualization of microcalcifications, and their distribution as compared to tomosynthesis alone.7,8 Insight 3D also helps when analyzing microcalcifications by clarifying their distribution and extent with just a glance. In addition, communication with patients, surgeons, and referring physicians can become easier thanks to be able to refer to a visualization of the pathology.
- Boost diagnostic confidence
- Increase patient satisfaction

Insight 2D
The new standard for synthetic mammograms
Get a synthetic 2D image generated from tomosynthesis data in an instant. A synthesized 2D image that can replace FFDM as an adjunct to digital breast tomosynthesis and offers fast evaluation of calcifications which are distributed over several DBT slices. Thanks to our new PREMIA image reconstruction algorithm that comes with AI-powered denoising, Insight 2D brings you a synthetic mammogram looking closer to an FFDM image than ever before.5
- Smooth transition from FFDM to wide-angle tomosynthesis
- Easy comparison with prior images
- Lower patient dosage6

PlatinumTomo:
The technological heart of our MAMMOMAT B.brilliant
A combination of well-known state-of-the-art components with the latest hard- and software achievements allows us to offer you a new dimension of image acquisition and image quality in tomosynthesis.
Product features
PRIME Technology
Progressive Reconstruction, Intelligently Minimizing Exposure
A software-based anti-scatter solution for mammography. It can reduce the dose considerably at uncompromised image quality, compared to grid-based acquisition using the same system.4
InSpect – Integrated specimen scanner
More time to focus on your patient during biopsy
InSpect is our integrated specimen scan that takes less than 20 seconds. Stay with your patient and check the specimen immediately in the exam room, without having to reposition the patient or switch to another system.
- Save time and avoid unnecessary patient inconvenience
- No investment for an additional scan device
TiCEM – Titanium Contrast-Enhanced Mammography
Stay at the forefront of clinical developments
MAMMOMAT B.brilliant offers you a quick and easy pathway to contrast-enhanced mammography with TiCEM.
