breast up.
Divide the breast into four equal quadrants, as if there was a
vertical and a horizontal line crossing the center of the breast. Now
perform:
2.
One application to the lower-outer quadrant of the breast,
making sure that the lower edge of the matrix adheres to the
breast (not the abdomen). Do not push the breast up.
3.
One application to the upper-outer quadrant of the breast, on
the border with the axilla, making sure that the edge of the
matrix) touches upon the lateral edge of the breast and does not
extend beyond it.
4.
One application to the upper-inner quadrant of the breast,
making sure that the edge of the matrix does not extend to the
other breast but runs along the centerline of the sternum.
5.
One application to the lower-inner quadrant of the breast. The
lower edge of the matrix should adhere to the breast (not the
abdomen). Do not push the breast up.
The applications may overlap, but do not worry if in some of your
patients’ cases they do not overlap as shown in the illustrations.
The crucial thing is to make sure that the entire breast is covered.
Follow the instructions displayed on the screen of your mobile
device. Each application takes about 15 seconds (depending on the
Wi-Fi conditions e.g. other transmitters or radio noise). The time
interval between applications lasts approximately 10–15 seconds
(depending on the breast temperature and the ambient
temperature). The matrix should not be in contact with the body
during this time.
