Combining our portfolio with Hillrom enhances patient outcomes with 3D imaging.
Cardiac diseases
Electrophysiology procedures
Biosense Webster/Johnson & Johnson Medical
3D mapping systems are extensively used in EP ablation procedures for diagnosing, guiding and treating complex arrhythmias. Our partnership with Biosense Webster integrates our interventional X-ray images with Biosense Webster’s CARTO® 3 System and CARTOUNIVU™ Module. It provides enhanced anatomical detail and orientation for electrophysiologists and helps them manage X-ray dose and reduce mapping time. Biosense Webster, a division of Johnson & Johnson Medical NV/SA, is recognized worldwide as a leader in the science behind the diagnosis and treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. The company offers a broad range of diagnostic and therapeutic cardiac catheters.
Boston Scientific
3D mapping systems are extensively used in EP ablation procedures for diagnosing, guiding and treating complex arrhythmias. We have aligned with Boston Scientific to ensure Boston Scientific’s Rhythmia™ Mapping System can work together with our interventional system without causing any artifacts in the imaging of the two systems. Boston Scientific’s products and technologies are used to diagnose or treat a wide range of medical conditions, including heart, digestive, pulmonary, vascular, urological, pelvic health, neurological and chronic pain conditions.
Abbott
To enhance workflow for electrophysiology Philips has collaborated extensively with Abbott and images from our EP navigator can be transferred to the EnSite™ Velocity™ Cardiac Mapping System. Abbot is a leading global medical device manufacturer dedicated to transforming the treatment of some of the world’s most expensive epidemic diseases. Focal areas include heart failure, atrial fibrillation, neuromodulation, traditional cardiac rhythm management, and cardiovascular. EnSite™ Velocity™ are trademarks of Abbott.
Structural heart procedures
Valve partners
Together with our partners Edwards, St. Jude Medical, Direct Flow Medical, Symetis and Boston Scientific, we provide an insightful planning and guidance solution for structural heart procedures called the HeartNavigator. With their cooperation, we offer 3D virtual device templates for all the devices produced by the respective partners in the HeartNavigator tool. This information can be visualized on the CT data to assess the appropriate device size and type for a TAVR/TAVI procedure.
Integrated solutions
Integrated Mentice VIST® Virtual Patient Simulator The Mentice VIST® Virtual Patient simulator is connected with the Philips Azurion interventional X-ray system so that users can practice handling the X-ray system’s control elements, table and C-arm – without radiation or direct risk to patients. This solution provides unlimited patient volumes and learning possibilities on real clinical procedures for individuals and teams.
Image Stream Medical
Partnering with Image Stream Medical, we have expanded our hybrid suite and interventional lab solutions to now include integrated audio and video, and live streaming technologies. Physicians will have access to real-time information from a range of technologies at their fingertips—inside or out of the procedure room—making interventional X-ray and other procedures more efficient and easier to perform. By focusing exclusively on surgical image management solutions, Image Stream Medical has emerged as the premier solution provider for the control, routing, streaming, capture and management of surgical images. Image Stream's digital image management products are currently being used in the full spectrum of surgical disciplines.
