2.2 System Inputs and Outputs
2.2.1 Inputs to the Cenova Server
Cenova software processes mammography images that conform to the DICOM standard.
Some DICOM images are not processed by the software, depending upon the application
and mammography view shown in the image.
The server supports inputs from:
•
Full Field Digital Mammography Systems:
The Cenova server processes two-
dimensional digital mammography images originating from up to four Full Field
Digital Mammography (FFDM) image acquisition systems. Each FFDM device maps
to an input port on the server. The Cenova server supports inputs from FFDM
devices manufactured by Hologic, Inc. (Danbury, CT), GE Healthcare (Waukesha,
WI), and Siemens AG (Munich, Germany). Certain in-country restrictions may apply.
Note
Quantra 2.2 software supports only Hologic FFDMs. Mixed environments of
Hologic and non-Hologic FFDMs using the same Cenova server need a new
Cenova 3.0 server for Quantra 2.2 software, and all necessary licenses for
Hologic FFDMs need to be migrated to the Cenova 3.0 server. Customers can
also choose to leave the non-Hologic FFDMs and licenses on the existing
Cenova server.
•
Hologic 3D Mammography
TM
Image Acquisition Systems:
The Cenova server
processes 3D Mammography
TM
datasets (Raw Projection images) originating from
one or two Hologic FFDM systems. The server processes Raw Synthesized 2D images
originating from up to four Hologic FFDM systems. Each Hologic FFDM device
maps to an input port on the server. Certain in-country restrictions may apply.
•
Film Digitizing Systems:
For film mammograms, the Cenova server processes
DigitalNow images originating from any of Hologic’s film-scanning systems.
For each Cenova server, sites can purchase:
•
Up to four licenses for any or all of the 2D software applications, for the Quantra
application on 3D images, plus a single license for DigitalNow HD, or
•
Up to two licenses for ImageChecker 3D Calc CAD, or
•
A single license for DigitalNow HD
Note that exceeding these guidelines with a single server can affect system response
times. For specific information about licensing bundles, contact your Hologic Account
Manager.
The diagrams in
on page 15 show that the server processes four types of
images.
