The New Revolution

The “Giotto” Image generation of Mammography is manufactured by Internazionale Medico Scientifica of Bologna, Italy.  IMS is a dedicated mammography manufacturer.  It is all they do.  They have been in business for 40 years.  The business began with general x-ray and was transformed into mammography as a specialty eleven years ago with the invention of the tilting circular gantry concept.  Since then the growth of the Company has expanded throughout the world, even though it is relatively new to the U.S. market.  IMS has sold over 1600 of the latest generation “Giotto Image” Mammography Systems through their international network of distributors.  Of those 1600 System 600 of them are Combination Mammography / Prone / Upright Stereotactic Systems.

IMS is the only Company in the world that has developed a Mammography System that incorporates the capability of Prone and Stereo, at any angle, in one machine.  Saving valuable space and money.  IMS has created the most cost effective, technologist friendly, patient comfortable Mammography System available today.

IMS has a pending PMA on their second generation Amorphous Selenium Full Field Digital Mammography System, with the same multi-functional capabilities of the “Giotto Image” analog system.   There are over 300 Full Field Digital Systems installed in Europe, China, Japan, Indonesia, Mexico and the Middle-East.    

The United States market is just beginning to open its eyes to the most revolutionary Mammography concept in the world.  Progressive Medical Corporation is the exclusive distributor of this product line in the Northwest.  Contact us for more information.
