A brand-new technology in imaging for women has just been approved by the FDA. It’s the GE Healthcare Senographe Pristina mammography machine, which allows the patient to use a remote to control how much pressure they receive, meaning a less painful experience for many. Most women are actually choosing more compression, which leads to clearer mammograms.
