50° Wide-Angle Tomosynthesis and contrast-enhanced full-field digital mammography
Women deserve fewer maybes.
There shouldn't be anything inconclusive about breast cancer screening – and yet that's the reality for too many women.
It’s time to change that.
Meet the MAMMOMAT B.brilliant, a whole new mammography system that brings you the next generation of mammography. Experience a completely new design that's focused entirely on the patient and the mammographer. With it, you can support:
- Unprecedented tissue separation. The system’s 50° Wide-Angle tomosynthesis in 5 seconds2,3 is designed to be the fastest tomo exam and highest in-depth resolution.1
- Better visualization of calcifications with flying focal spot technology for excellent in-plane resolution.
- AI-enabled image denoising and adaptable image impressions thanks to UltraHD PREMIA image reconstruction.
- Improved patient comfort and technologist ergonomics with a completely new system designed to focus on the human experience.
Benefits
Women deserve fewer maybes in mammography.
Women deserve answers.
PlatinumTomo

- Excellent in-plane resolution and acquisition speed
- 50° Wide-Angle acquisition in just 5 seconds2,3
- Faster read-out time for faster image acquisition speed
Women deserve comfort.
ComfortGuide Display
- Patient and workflow information are always in sight at eye level
- Significantly improve technologist ergonomics and patient experience
- Stationary face shield is angled in to get more posterior tissue
- Automatic, optimized, and personalized breast compression for increased patient comfort and consistent image quality year over year
- Reduce anxiety and improve the patient experience by creating a soothing environment.
Women deserve access.
Performance Optimization
TomoFlow
- Tomoflow reconstructs images in the background, allowing the technologist to move through the exam without having to wait for 3D images to reconstruct.
- Move to the next examination step with a single touch of a button. B.brilliant knows your workflow and will move with you
- Reduce the administrative tasks your team is performing
- Quickly assess positioning before exposing the patient for the entire acquisition to minimize dose
- Every mammography system needs to be calibrated regularly. Turbo Calibration takes less than five minutes once every 6 months.
Women deserve clarity.
As a system that offers both TiCEM (Titanium Contrast-Enhanced Mammography) and wide-angle tomosynthesis-guided biopsy, MAMMOMAT B.brilliant provides quick and easy access to supplemental modalities for diagnostic clarification in mammography. MAMMOMAT B.brilliant is a modular, customizable, and future-ready mammography platform that brings together valuable features to increase accuracy and speed, including wide-angle tomosynthesis targeting, needle navigator, and convenient workflows.

Product Features
TiCEM – Titanium Contrast-Enhanced Mammography
Stay at the forefront of clinical developments
MAMMOMAT B.brilliant offers you a quick and easy pathway to contrast-enhanced mammography with TiCEM. TiCEM allows for fast identification of potential cancers and rules out inconclusive lesions. Siemens Healthineers is the only vendor with a titanium filter to enable consecutive CEM exams with no interruptions due to tube overheating.
- Short exam time
- Potential alternative to MR
- Affordable
50° Wide Angle 3D and Stereo Biopsy
Pinpoint precision thanks to 50° wide angle 3D guided biopsy.
Biopsy image acquisitions with PlatinumTomo enable the highest depth resolution to help you feel confident in biopsy targeting with an accuracy of +/-1 mm.
The needle navigator provides visual feedback of the needle position for even greater targeting confidence.
Pre- and postfire tomosynthesis* images aim to make your biopsy procedures faster and more convenient.
InSpect integrates specimen imaging on the biopsy unit, taking less than 20 seconds to review your specimen sample. InSpect means you can stay with your patient and don’t have to invest in a separate imaging system for biopsy.
*Available when performing horizontal approach biopsies.
PRIME Technology
Progressive Reconstruction, Intelligently Minimizing Exposure
A software-based anti-scatter solution for mammography. Reduce the dose considerably without compromising image quality compared to grid-based acquisition using the same system.2
ComfortGuide Display
More transparent processes during the examination
Patient and workflow information are always in sight on a screen at eye level – including next workflow steps, information on compression and system movement, breast thickness and more.
- Patient information at eye level
- Unique communication tool for patients and technologists
- Information on current and upcoming workflow steps
ComfortMove
Independent movement, easy patient access
ComfortMove significantly improves technologists’ ergonomics by providing programmed movement of the tube and gantry to automatically position itself out of the way. This means the tube does not stand between you and the patient.
- Easier and optimized patient positioning
- More freedom of movement for mammographers and patients
- Reduce repetitive stress injuries for mammographers
Optimized face shield
Create more stability and comfort for patients
The optimized face shield allows the patient to lean in to the unit, allowing you to get more posterior tissue.
- Enhance patient comfort during exams
- Get optimal images thanks to stabilized patient positioning
SoftComp Paddles
Paddles designed for ultimate comfort, curved in the right places to alleviate pressure points for patients. The curves allow easier access to position the breast for the technologist.
OpComp
Intelligent Personalized Compression
Automatic, optimized and personalized breast compression for increased patient comfort and consistent image quality year over year.
Reduce operator variability by providing the optimal compression for the optimal image, every time.
PlatinumTomo
The technological heart of the MAMMOMAT B.brilliant
A combination of well-known state-of-the-art components with the latest hardware and software achievements allows Siemens Healthineers to offer you a new dimension of image acquisition and image quality in tomosynthesis.
