Isaac Zaworski, President of Sectra advises: “Collaborating across sites and providing efficient radiology workflows are needed to cope with the increasing imaging volumes. This new customer is the 60th healthcare provider to use Sectra in the US Midwest and I’m pleased to be continuing our work in this area. With our local experience as well as our knowledge in providing multi-site solutions for large organizations we will help them on this journey in the best way possible.”

MediView notes the system, which has received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and is currently in clinical use, is intended to be used adjunctively for minimally invasive ultrasound guided needle-based procedures for soft tissue and bone.

The new CT 5300 system is already installed at several European hospitals and has been well-received. “CT 5300 offers CT imaging from head to toe, combined with high-end functionality such as coronary angiography, delivering an extremely broad spectrum of applications, helping us to better manage increased volumes of patients,” said Dr. Hilmar Kühl, Head of Radiology at St. Bernhard-Hospital Kamp-Lintfort, Germany. “With this latest system from Philips, we see an improvement in image quality with Precise Imaging, and for the first time, we can now visualize cardiac anatomy by using Precise Cardiac nearly artifact-free, which is very valuable to help improve cardiac care for our patients.”

“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.  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,” said Mark Stoffels, Business Leader of Image Guided Therapy Systems at Philips.
