STRATFORD, Conn., July 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- KUBTEC announced today that it has released a new video featuring top breast cancer surgeons discussing how intraoperative specimen tomosynthesis has improved quality of care for their patients.

Leading breast cancer surgeons discuss how specimen tomosynthesis improves quality of care for their patients.

Particularly, specimen tomosynthesis enables them to reduce the frequency of second surgeries, reduce procedure times and improve cosmetic outcomes.

The Mozart System from KUBTEC is the only intraoperative breast specimen imaging system to use tomosynthesis.

John Leach, VP Marketing at KUBTEC said, "This video demonstrates the tangible improvements in breast cancer treatment that can be gained by using the Mozart System, which is rapidly becoming the technology of choice for leading breast cancer surgical centers. We want to ensure that all hospitals and surgery centers are aware of the impact the Mozart System can have on quality of care."

Leach added, "A recent study of 100 breast cancer patients, conducted at MD Anderson Cancer Center, concluded that specimen tomosynthesis is more effective than X-ray at identifying positive margins during breast cancer surgery. The new video demonstrates that other Centers of Excellence are achieving the same results."

The Mozart System is designed and manufactured by Kubtec of Stratford, CT.

The company uses proprietary Tomosynthesis technology, which creates images in 1mm digital slices to give radiologists, surgeons and pathologists an improved view of the anatomy of surgical specimens. This enables them to reduce the incidence of positive margins that often lead to repeat surgeries.
