Planmed develops, manufactures and markets advanced imaging equipment and accessories for mammography and orthopedic imaging. Planmed’s extensive mammography product range covers digital and analog units, stereotactic biopsy devices, and breast positioning systems for an early detection of breast cancer. Within orthopedic 3D imaging Planmed offers low dose extremity CT imaging for quicker, easier and more accurate diagnosis at the point-of-care.
Planmed Verity detects subtle fracture lines that are often overlooked when using 2D X-ray imaging. In contrast to full-body CTs, this extremity scanner is distinguished by higher resolution, patient adaptability and lower radiation doses. Its design is welcoming and friendly with an individual touch. The device’s appearance is characterized by a teardrop-shaped imaging bore and the so-called “bite” in the outer rim, which makes patient positioning easier. The adjustable gantry, with its soft surface and various positioning options, moreover supports the comfortable position of the patient.
Planmed products have always been known for their ergonomic and stylish design. We at Planmed recognize that well-designed devices arouse confidence and create an ergonomic and safe environment for both the user and the patient. Our design has been described as “emphatetic”, which we feel is a remarkable and rare achievement for any medical device and which has also been acknowledged in several international design competitions.
