“ ... Represents a Major Advance ... ”

“The pneumatic firing capability of the Eviva device represents a major advance over conventional biopsy systems. The decrease in the sound of the firing mechanism has a major impact on patients’ perception of the procedure, reducing their overall anxiety and perception of pain.”
- Dr. Stuart Kaplan, Mount Sinai Medical Center, Miami, FL Mount Sinai Medical Center, Miami, FL

“ Set-up time is faster... ”

“Set-up time is faster, 5 minutes on average. The design of the system gives you a nice visual to follow for steps needed, frees up the tech once the radiologist starts to sample, and allows us to turn the room over faster. I have seen a real commitment on Hologic’s part to improving the overall experience for patients having breast biopsies as well as improving efficiency for the radiologist and technologists. Patients routinely say, “It was much better than I thought it would be.’”
- Susan Zignego, Lead Mammography Technologist, Advocate Aurora Grafton Medical Center, Grafton, WI
