AUBURN, NEBRASKA, October 2, 2026 – Nemaha County Hospital is raising the standard for breast imaging with the installation of MAMMOMAT B.brilliant from Siemens Healthineers. This new system combines exceptional image quality with remarkable speed and comfort to support earlier and more confident detection.
Powered by Platinum Tomo technology, MAMMOMAT B.brilliant captures a 50-degree image sweep in just five seconds¹. This allows radiologists to see more tissue detail in less time, helping to improve accuracy and reduce the need for repeat imaging.
“We’re committed to offering our patients advanced breast imaging right here at Nemaha County Hospital,” said Brian Schaefer, Director of Imaging. “MAMMOMAT B.brilliant gives our team access to exceptional imaging technology while allowing our patients to receive expert care close to home. It delivers an outstanding balance of image clarity, speed, and comfort, which makes a real difference in both diagnosis and patient experience.”
Confidence in every scan The system’s wide 50° angle and UltraHD image reconstruction provide highly detailed views of breast tissue structures. This level of clarity supports earlier detection and greater confidence in every exam.
Designed for comfort MAMMOMAT B.brilliant features personalized compression that adapts to each patient’s anatomy, minimizing discomfort while maintaining image precision. Faster scans also mean less time under compression, creating a more comfortable experience overall.
“Our goal is to make mammography more comfortable and accessible to our patients,” explains Schaefer. “This technology helps us provide the best possible care in a faster, more comfortable way. Our patients shouldn’t have to travel far to access advanced imaging and experienced healthcare professionals, and this investment allows us to continue bringing that level of care to our community.”
With the addition of MAMMOMAT B.brilliant, Nemaha County Hospital continues to invest in advanced technology that supports accuracy, comfort, and confidence in breast cancer screening.
