Mako Mammo Probe
The Mako Mammo Probe, paired with the Mako Base Unit, delivers best-in-class accuracy (±1.5% or 0.5 kV) and performance, covering the full clinical kV range from 18-49 kV. Unlike other solutions, it doesn’t require probe changes above 40 kV. Designed for optimal performance across all Mammography systems, including those with the latest Titanium filter beam qualities.
Fully Compatible with All Mammography Machines
Mako is the only solution compatible with all Mammography machines, covering their entire clinical measurement range. This eliminates the need to switch probes at higher kV ranges, enhancing production speed and quality while minimizing radiation risk. Mako provides the most versatile tools for accurate and efficient mammography measurements.
