2View is a container designed specifically to expedite specimen mammography of breast tissue removed
at wire-localized excision or partial mastectomy. The 2View allows radiographic viewing while retaining the
position of the specimen without excessive compression and allows for two orthogonal views
without any operator manipulation of the specimen itself.
You know the story. You carefully remove the
specimen. You place it in a container for imaging.
The imaging technologist compresses your
specimen, rendering your margins non-existent.
Or imaging can get you one view of the specimen.
You hope that the area of interest is not too close
to the top or bottom of the specimen, which could
result in re-excision.
Or you ask the technologist to rotate your specimen
90 degrees to get a second, orthogonal view. Was
the specimen actually rotated 90 degrees? Or was
the specimen damaged with the manipulation?
Either way, you close the patient not exactly sure
pathology will report “clear margins.”
