 You will then sit in a chair as a study staff member positions the PEMFlex Solo II on either side of your breast that has, or is suspected to have cancer. To take images using the PEMFlex Solo II, the breast is placed between two flat panels on the scanning machine and compressed flattened. The position of the breast for this procedure is similar to getting a mammogram, but the PEMFlex Solo II uses about 50 less force to compress the breasts. The compression will be repeated on the other breast if you are having scans of both breasts performed.
