The AMULET Innovality is the result of Fujifilm’s ongoing ‘innovation’ and commitment to providing top  ‘quality’ mammography services. The Innovality utilizes Fujifilm’s unique a-Se direct conversion flat panel  detector (FPD)*1 to produce clear images with a low X-ray dose. This system makes use of intelligent AEC (i AEC) combined with an image analysis technology to automatically adjust the X-ray dosage for each breast  type. It is a highly advanced mammography system, which offers an extremely fast image interval of just 15  seconds.
