Beekley SPOTS Features & Benefits
In both the new digital and current film-screen mammography modalities, skin marking benefits remain the same. For legal and documentation purposes, nothing can replace the efficacy and permanence of skin markers. It's still all about enhanced communication, documentation and accuracy in aiding in the early detection of breast cancer.

Only Beekley's see-through Light Image skin markers won't hide a cancer! Our exclusive low-density material will not obscure micro-calcifications or any suspicious areas. That means better communication, fewer questions and fewer additional views. Beekley knows the only way to fight breast cancer is to expose it.

Exclusive soft, elastic material provides maximum patient comfort under compression. Pinch-free and pliable, Soft 'n Stretchy products stay securely in place and contour to the breast, bending and expanding under compression throughout the exam. And they lift off easily for painless removal.

Digital Image Compatibility
Full Field Digital Mammography (FFDM) is an emerging new technology using computers and specially designed detectors to produce a digital image of the breast that can be displayed on high resolution monitors. Clinical feedback from our "digital" customers reinforces that nipple marking, first and foremost, continues to serve as a landmark for determining the exact location of areas of concern. Mole, scar and mass marking serve to locate, characterise and document any areas of interest on the breast.

"Sticks Just Right" Adhesive
Beekley markers stay on the patient 33% more than other brands*. SPOTS are made with unique materials that flex with the patient. So, instead of slipping out of place or ending up on the floor, they stay where they are supposed to be for accurate, reliable films the first time.
