Philips highlights AI-powered precision diagnosis portfolio at ECR
2022
July 13, 2022 Philips demonstrates portfolio of
smart connected imaging systems and integrated radiology workflow
solutions designed to improve diagnostic confidence and clinical
outcomesAmsterdam, the Netherlands and Vienna, Austria –
Royal Philips (NYSE: PHG, AEX: PHIA), a global leader in health
technology, will showcase its award-winning AI-powered systems and
solutions debuting at the European Congress of Radiology (ECR, July
13-17, Vienna, Austria). Philips will demonstrate how its
portfolio of smart connected imaging systems and integrated
radiology workflow solutions help increase diagnostic confidence
and clinical outcomes; help reduce staff stress and burnout;
improve patient engagement and quality access to care; and enhance
efficiency to help reduce waste.“Radiology plays such a critical
role in diagnosing and guiding patients into the right treatment
plans. That’s why we designed our smart connected imaging systems
to deliver first time right diagnoses with the latest clinical
technologies and applications to drive patient-centric insights
supporting early and definitive diagnosis and treatment,” said Kees
Wesdorp, Chief Business Leader of Precision Diagnosis at Philips.
“Addressing operational inefficiencies across the entire radiology
enterprise was also the driving force behind the introduction of
our AI-enabled, software defined systems and solutions to assist
customers by automating and accelerating routine tasks, generating
insights from large amounts of data to help improve productivity
and lower the risk of staff burnout.”Smart connected imaging
systems help increase diagnostic confidenceIt is projected the
amount of healthcare data will grow 36% each year by 2025 [1]. In
the recent Future Health Index 2022 Global report commissioned by
Philips, one of the biggest challenges facing radiology leaders is
managing the sheer volume of data available to them, with nearly a
quarter (24%) of those surveyed, citing data management as their
top issue. Philips AI-powered leading technologies help turn
relevant data into actionable insights to increase diagnostic
confidence and improve clinical outcomes.New at ECR 2022, Philips
will spotlight its latest AI-powered, software-defined MR smart
systems, including its SmartSpeed artificial intelligence (AI)
powered MR acceleration software, which delivers higher image
resolution with 3 times faster scan times [2] and virtually no loss
in image quality, representing a major step forward in diagnostic
confidence and MR department productivity. Philips SmartSpeed joins
the growing number of Philips AI powered workflow innovations
available across the portfolio of smart Philips MR systems that
will be showcased at ECR, including the European introduction of
the new smart connected 3T MR system, Philips MR 7700 and the
company’s latest MR 5300 1.5T helium-free in operations MR system.
Each of these systems uses intelligent software to automate tasks
and help relieve the burden on busy radiology staff and
departments.Also new to the European market and being showcased at
ECR 2022 is the award-winning Philips Spectral CT 7500, the latest
intelligent system to deliver high quality spectral images for
every patient on every scan 100% of the time to help improve
disease characterization, and reduce rescans and follow-ups, all at
the same dose levels as conventional scans. The time-saving
spectral workflow is fully integrated, enabling the technologist to
get the patient on and off the table quickly – spectral chest scans
and head scans take less than one second, and a full upper body
spectral scan can be completed in less than two seconds. The new
Spectral CT 7500 has demonstrated a 34% reduction in time to
diagnosis, a 25% reduction in repeat scans and a 30% reduction in
follow-up scans [3].Integrated radiology workflows drive
operational efficiency and improve patient
experienceOperational inefficiencies continue to weigh heavily
on clinicians and health systems as they strive to deliver the very
best care for their patients. It is no surprise that 45% of
radiologists reported symptoms of burnout pre-pandemic [4], while
97% of technologists report moderate or severe levels of job stress
[5]. Visitors to the Philips Zone at ECR 2022 will see how Philips’
end-to-end, vendor neutral solutions simplify and connect workflows
to address productivity challenges across the radiology
enterprise. Philips Radiology Workflow Suite is a
combination of solutions that support clear and efficient radiology
workflows. At ECR, Philips continues to expand its Radiology
Workflow Suite, introducing new and enhanced solutions across the
entire radiology workflow with a focus on:
- Patient engagement, featuring Philips Care Engagement
Manager, a web based clinical and patient decision support software
platform intended to aid in remote communication and care
management between patients and healthcare providers. The solution
is designed to reduce no shows and cancellations, increase referral
conversions, improve patient adherence to instructions, reduce
staff burden and improve patient engagement, education, and
communication.
- Virtual radiology support with Philips Radiology
Operations Command Center [6], a vendor-neutral, multi-modality,
multi-site telepresence solution that provides advanced
tele-acquisition capabilities and seamlessly connects imaging
experts at a command center with technologists at scanners across
care locations. Remote expert support removes the barrier of
physical distance, extending the ability to offer consistent
imaging experiences across organizations regardless of location.
Virtual remote radiology support is also provided with Philips
Collaboration Live [7], available on Philips ultrasound systems
EPIQ Elite and Affiniti, delivering tele-ultrasound capabilities,
allowing ultrasound teams to securely talk, text, screen-share, and
video stream directly from their ultrasound system to a PC or
mobile device to extend the team without expanding it.
Data-driven practice management and patient-centered
imagingAt ECR 2022, Philips will spotlight Enterprise
Performance Analytics – PerformanceBridge, a vendor-neutral,
real-time data platform designed to improve productivity and reduce
costs across enterprise-wide imaging departments to enhance
operational decision-making. PerformanceBridge integrates data from
multiple industry-standard data sources (such as HL7, DICOM and
other structured data sources), onto one platform, for immediate
access to information necessary for quick actionable observations
and detailed reports. Also making its European debut at ECR 2022 is
new Philips Pediatric Coaching [8], a holistic mobile app designed
to be a less stressful experience for parents and their children
undergoing MRI scans. Using gamification and ‘buddy system’
techniques to prepare children and their parents beforehand, the
app helps guide young children through the MRI procedure to
significantly enhance the patient experience.Philips hosted
symposia sessions and sustainability round table at
ECRHealthcare systems account for 4.4% of carbon emissions
worldwide; more than the aviation and shipping industries. Philips
will join an educational round table session hosted by the European
Society of Radiology (ESR) on July 14 at 12:30PM CET discussing
what’s needed to “Build a Green Radiology Department,” featuring
leading radiology experts from around the world who will address
what can be done now to mitigate the environmental impact of
essential imaging technology. Philips will also host
two Symposia sessions, featuring TED Talk-style presentations, and
interactive conversations. On Wednesday, July 13, at 11:30AM CET,
ECR attendees can join the discussion on “Accelerating Clinical
competency through partnership and innovation,” to hear from
world-renowned health leaders on how to address the growing demand
for early disease diagnosis. On Thursday, July 14, at 12:30PM CET,
health leaders will discuss “Balancing high tech and high touch:
Keeping patients at the heart through innovation and workflow,”
sharing insights on how to drive optimization in diagnostic
operations.
All sessions will be live-streamed for attendees to join
virtually if they are not at ECR in person. Visit Philips at ECR
2022 for more details.
