Amsterdam, the Netherlands – Royal Philips (NYSE: PHG,
AEX: PHIA), a global leader in health technology, today announced
the launch of its AI-enabled Precise Suite [1] solution for the
company’s Incisive CT platform. Precise Suite delivers smart
workflows from image acquisition through reporting with AI-enabled
image reconstruction, automated patient positioning, motion-free
cardiac image capture, and real-time interventional guidance to
drive precision in dose, speed, and image quality.
Despite rapid advances in Computed Tomography (CT) speed and
performance, radiology departments continue to face challenges in
terms of increasing patient volumes and ensuring consistency in
image quality, while at the same time improving operational
efficiency and lowering the cost-per-scan. Precise Suite aims to
address these challenges through the use of artificial intelligence
(AI) [2] to streamline and automate workflows and maximize image
quality, thereby reducing the number of re-scans required and
improving diagnostic confidence. For departments that use CT for
interventional procedures, it also includes enhanced needle
tracking capabilities.
“With CT representing one of the most ubiquitous imaging
modalities in modern medicine, AI-enabled enhancements such as
Precise Suite that focus on diagnostic confidence and workflow
improvement have huge potential to make a positive impact on the
delivery of value-based healthcare,” said Karim Boussebaa, General
Manager of Computed Tomography at Philips. “Precise Suite
drives end-to-end smart workflows from image acquisition through to
reporting, as well as boosting speed, consistency, and diagnostic
confidence.”
Precise Suite adds to Philips’ growing suite of AI-enabled
‘smart workflow’ solutions designed to support system operators at
the point of image acquisition for greater efficiency. Precise
Suite accelerates CT workflows, improves diagnostic confidence, and
enhances the staff and patient experience through the
following:
- Precise Image: Designed to improve diagnostic confidence
and reduce radiologist fatigue by simultaneously reducing dose and
improving image quality.
- Precise Position: Automated patient positioning through
an AI-enabled camera designed to increase positioning accuracy and
user-to-user consistency in a fraction of the time.
- Precise Cardiac: Zero-click technique designed to
improve high heart rate cardiac imaging by compensating for cardiac
motion.
- Precise Intervention: Provides automatic needle tracking
and guidance designed to improve efficiency and confidence in
CT-guided interventional procedures.
Precise Suite is the latest in a continuous program of
performance enhancements for Philips’ market-leading Incisive CT
platform, which already includes a newly designed patient table
that accommodates bariatric patients, the ‘Tube for Life’
guarantee, Philips’ PerformanceBridge process improvement services,
and its DoseWise Portal patient/staff radiation exposure tracking
solution. The inclusion of the AI-enabled Precise Suite combined
with OnPlan patient-side controls and the ‘Tube-for-Life’ guarantee
in a single CT scanner platform make Incisive CT unique in the
industry.
Precise Suite on Incisive CT is being unveiled at the 2021
European Congress of Radiology (ECR) virtual exhibition (March 3-7,
2021). For more information on Philips’ new portfolio of diagnostic
and interventional solutions and AI-enabled applications to enhance
