- Hanoi Medical University Hospital has acquired the first MAMMOMAT Revelation system from Siemens Healthineers, marking a major advancement in breast cancer screening and diagnosis in Vietnam.
- The MAMMOMAT Revelation will expand existing diagnostic options for Hanoi Medical University Hospital and provide access to functional breast imaging with contrast-enhanced mammography.
Hanoi Medical University Hospital (HMUH) has officially launched its high-tech Breast Imaging Center, marking a significant milestone in enhancing the screening and treatment capacity for breast cancer in Vietnam. The event also celebrated the unveiling of the first installation of the MAMMOMAT Revelation mammography system from in Vietnam.
The inauguration ceremony was attended by leading experts, including leadership representatives from the Hanoi Medical University Hospital and Hanoi Medical University; Assoc. Prof. Dr. Le Tuan Linh – Director of HMUH Center for Diagnostic Imaging and Interventional Radiology; Specialist II. Le Hong Cuc – President of the President of the Vietnam Breast Imaging Sub-Association; Dr. Theresa S. Buenaflor – Health Cube Clinic, Philippines; along with Mr. Fabrice Leguet – Managing Director, Siemens Healthineers ASEAN, and Mr. Tran Thanh Ngan – Head of Sales, Siemens Healthineers Vietnam. The event also welcomed representatives from local and international media, highlighting significant interest in innovative solutions for breast healthcare.
At the ceremony, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Le Tuan Linh – Director of HMUH Center for Diagnostic Imaging and Interventional Radiology, shared: "In the medical field, breast-related diseases have not received sufficient attention, either from the medical community or the general public. There are still localities without a mammography machine, relying solely on ultrasound combined with clinical examination. Therefore, the establishment of the High-tech Breast Imaging Center marks a breakthrough in diagnostic processes, helping raise awareness and encouraging women to take better care of their breast health. I hope that this model will be replicated across healthcare facilities to help doctors, patients, and the community as a whole better understand the importance of early detection and treatment of breast-related diseases."
Following this, Mr. Fabrice Leguet emphasized: “We are immensely proud to partner with Hanoi Medical University Hospital to bring the most advanced technological solutions closer to doctors and patients. Today’s event reaffirms Siemens Healthineers’ unwavering commitment to pioneering breakthroughs in healthcare. For everyone. Everywhere. Sustainably.”
The MAMMOMAT Revelation 3D mammography system is a state-of-the-art product in Siemens Healthineers’ portfolio for breast care. Equipped with wide-angle 3D Tomosynthesis at 50 degrees, this system delivers exceptional image clarity, enabling the detection of even the smallest lesions that are often missed in traditional methods1. A standout feature is Titanium Contrast-Enhanced Mammography (TiCEM), a new technology in Vietnam that significantly improves the accuracy of differentiating between benign and malignant breast lesions.
As part of the event, a scientific workshop titled “Advances in Breast Imaging” was also held, attracting significant attention from leading experts in breast care. The workshop featured presentations that provided attendees with the latest insights into the value of 3D mammography, contrast-enhanced mammography for cancer diagnosis and screening, mammography-guided biopsy, and the application of artificial intelligence in breast imaging. The occasion also featured hands-on sessions for interpreting 3D mammograms, contrast-enhanced mammograms, and mammography-guided biopsy.
This milestone event highlights Hanoi Medical University Hospital’s ongoing efforts to improve patient care quality while underscoring Siemens Healthineers’ role as a pioneer in supporting Vietnam’s healthcare system. By delivering cutting-edge and practical solutions, Siemens Healthineers contributes to the development of a modern healthcare infrastructure, enabling effective diagnosis and treatment, and ultimately benefiting patients across Vietnam.
