About CapeRay
CapeRay Medical develops, manufactures and supplies medical imaging equipment for the diagnosis of breast cancer. CapeRay has developed a digital mammography system known as the PantoScanner which brings a dual modality approach to breast cancer screening, combining automated breast ultrasound and low dose digital x-rays to provide complementary information on the composition of breast tissue. The PantoScanner, which also incorporates digital tomosynthesis, combines the attributes of each modality to improve the sensitivity and specificity for detecting breast cancer. Its dual-modality Aceso system combines current breast cancer screening methods, simultaneously gathering both digital X-ray and 3D ultrasound-based images in just one 10 minute-exam – an impressive feat considering current methods often require women to undergo 30 minute-tests during multiple office visits. Additionally, CapeRay’s screening equipment records images in the same orientation and degree of compression, allowing for more accurate diagnoses. CapeRay Medical (Pty) Ltd. is a privately-held company based in Cape Town, South Africa.
