Enhancing RVUs with KUBTEC’s MOZART® 3D Specimen Radiography System
A key measure reflecting both the value of healthcare services rendered and their reimbursement potential is the Relative Value Unit (RVU). Understanding how innovative medical technologies, like KUBTEC's MOZART® 3D Specimen Radiography System, could positively impact RVUs is essential for enhancing clinical outcomes, streamlining processes, and boosting revenue.

3D Tomosynthesis vs. Micro-CT: Comparing Imaging Methods for Intraoperative Breast Specimen Analysis
This post compares 3D Tomosynthesis and Micro-CT for intraoperative breast specimen imaging, highlighting the advantages of Tomosynthesis, such as faster imaging, higher contrast resolution, and better visualization of soft tissues. In contrast, Micro-CT, while useful for research, has limitations like slower processing times, lower contrast resolution, and workflow disruptions, making Tomosynthesis the preferred method for breast-conserving surgery.

Comparison of Intra-operative Specimen Imaging in Breast Surgery with MOZART® 3D Specimen Tomosynthesis System versus Conventional Specimen Radiography: An Early Institutional Experience
Breast specimen radiography is essential to ensure adequate excision of lesions of interest. Intra-operative breast specimen radiography by surgeons is a safe and reliable technique with a shorter total operative time. This study encourages a shift towards surgeons utilizing intra-operative specimen radiography in breast surgery.
