Leader in women’s health, Hologic is one of the most popular producers of the mammography machines
Hologic is a leader in women’s health, especially breast imaging, being one of the most popular producers of the mammography machines we offer here at Amber Diagnostics. The company has been in business for over thirty years. Today we’re going to take a look at five interesting facts about the smaller but influential corporation known as Hologic.
- Hologic was founded by CEO and Chairman S. David Ellenbogen and Chief Technical Officer Jay A. Stein in 1985.
- In addition to mammography machines, Hologic also focuses on other imaging technology such as MRI, Mini C-Arm, and Skeletal health, assays and tests, blood screening, intervention and treatment such as breast biopsy and gynecologic surgery, and clinical diagnostic solutions such as prostate health and sexually transmitted infections.
- Hologic is based in Marlborough, MA, which is famous for being the home of the first shoe manufacturing business opened in 1836; and continued to produce shoes for Union soldiers and civilians throughout the Civil War. Marlborough was so well known for its shoes that the official seal was decorated with a shoe box and pair of boots in 1890.
