Analog Mammography System in Kenya
Leading Analog Mammography System Supplier

An analog mammography system is a specialized X-ray imaging device designed specifically for examining breast tissue. Unlike its digital counterparts, analog systems capture radiographic images onto film using a combination of an X-ray tube, a grid, and image receptors. The core principle involves directing low-dose X-rays through the breast, which are differentially absorbed by various tissue densities. Denser tissues, such as calcifications and tumors, absorb more X-rays, appearing whiter on the film, while less dense tissues like fat appear darker. This contrast allows radiologists to identify potential abnormalities.

The primary function of an analog mammography system is diagnostic imaging, enabling the detection and assessment of breast conditions. This includes screening for early signs of breast cancer in asymptomatic individuals, as well as diagnostic mammography for evaluating palpable lumps, breast pain, or nipple discharge in symptomatic patients.

Our team is dedicated to ensuring a seamless and efficient installation of your new Analog Mammography System in Kenya. We understand the critical nature of this equipment and prioritize minimizing downtime for your facility. Our comprehensive installation process covers every essential stage, from initial site assessment to final calibration and training, guaranteeing optimal performance and safety from day one.

Site Preparation: Before delivery, a thorough site survey will be conducted by our certified technicians. This crucial step ensures that your facility meets all the necessary specifications for the analog mammography system, including power requirements, ventilation, shielding (if applicable), and adequate space for the unit and associated accessories. We will collaborate closely with your facility's maintenance and IT teams to address any preparatory needs and ensure a smooth transition.

Delivery and Unpacking: Upon completion of site preparation, your Analog Mammography System will be carefully delivered to your facility by our experienced logistics partners. Our technicians will oversee the unpacking process, meticulously inspecting all components for any signs of damage during transit. Any discrepancies will be immediately documented and addressed.

Installation Steps: Our highly trained and certified engineers will then proceed with the physical installation of the system. This includes:

• Strategic placement of the mammography unit according to the approved site plan.
• Connection of all necessary power, data, and ancillary lines.
• Assembly of any peripheral components, such as the control console and image processing units.
• Initial power-up and system checks to verify all components are functioning correctly.

Calibration Requirements: Post-installation, rigorous calibration is performed by our specialized engineers to ensure the highest level of diagnostic accuracy and patient safety. This involves:

• Image Quality Calibration: Adjusting parameters to achieve optimal image contrast, resolution, and density.
• Dose Calibration: Ensuring that the radiation dose delivered is within regulatory limits and optimized for diagnostic quality.
• Mechanical Alignment: Verifying the precise alignment of all moving parts for smooth and accurate operation.
• Performance Testing: Conducting comprehensive tests using phantoms and test objects to confirm that the system meets all performance specifications.

Our commitment extends beyond installation; we provide thorough training for your radiology staff on the operation, basic maintenance, and quality assurance procedures of your new Analog Mammography System.

The cost of an analog mammography system in Kenya can vary significantly, influenced by factors such as brand, model, condition (new vs. refurbished), and included features or accessories. While new systems are less common in the current market, being phased out in favour of digital alternatives, they would typically represent the highest investment. Refurbished systems are the most prevalent option and offer a more accessible entry point for healthcare facilities.

For a new analog mammography system, if available, you could expect a price range anywhere from KES 8,000,000 to KES 15,000,000+. However, it's crucial to note that sourcing entirely new units can be challenging.

Refurbished analog mammography systems offer a more realistic and budget-friendly solution. Prices for well-maintained and certified refurbished units typically fall between KES 3,500,000 and KES 7,000,000. The lower end of this range might represent older models or systems requiring minor component replacements, while the higher end would indicate more recent models, extensive refurbishment, and potentially longer warranties.

When evaluating prices, always consider what is included in the quote: installation, training, service contracts, and warranty periods are all vital components that impact the overall value and long-term operational cost of the system.
