Philips has launched its new Azurion neuro biplane system at this year’s ECR 2024 meeting.
The Azurion neuro biplane image-guided therapy system was designed to smooth and optimize workflows where a combo of 2D and 3D imaging is necessary for confident diagnosis and precision treatment, Philips said. It’s used with the company’s latest Neuro Suite software and services.
The full integrated solution combines the company’s ClarityIQ low-dose imaging with a range of neuro dedicated tools and value-added services. New features include enhanced C-arm rotation, angulation, and parking facilities for rapid transition between 2D and 3D imaging.
The system also features comprehensive table-side control that removes the need to leave the sterile field, automatic beam rotation to collect correctly oriented images for every angulation and rotation, and a new head immobilizer to support better stroke care.
Philips also said it’s maximizing the uptime for its angio suite by using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to monitor system performance through the remote connection services of the Philips ServiceHub. These communicate, monitor, and proactively respond to potential service issues, for example, predicting likely component failures at least a week in advance.
“Working closely with leading interventionists, we designed the latest Azurion neuro biplane to meet their requirements of superior patient care, optimized angio suite performance, and efficient return on investment,” said Mark Stoffels, Business Leader of Image Guided Therapy Systems at Philips. “Together, I am confident we can continue to reduce the impact of stroke, helping more patients to recover faster and reducing long-term impact on their health.”
