Transforming navigation inside the body \u2013 with light instead of X-ray <\/p>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
LumiGuide, powered by Philips Fiber Optic RealShape (FORS) technology, is the first solution to use light to visualize the shape and position of LumiGuide wires and compatible endovascular catheters inside the body in real time and in 3D \u2013 without X-ray. By reflecting light along an optical fiber integrated into the guidewire, LumiGuide shows high-resolution, full-color images from any angle, giving physicians instant orientation during complex endovascular procedures. LumiGuide uses AI to quickly and accurately align any image with the patient’s anatomy. This technology allows clinicians to navigate with precision, while significantly reducing radiation exposure for both patients and clinical staff. Using this advanced technology, complex cases such as aortic repair procedures can be performed 37% faster and with up to 56% DAP reduction [1].\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMoving LumiGuide from limited to full commercial availability is an important milestone in expanding access to advanced image-guided therapy,\u201d said Stacey Beske, Business Leader Image-Guided Therapy Devices at Philips.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBy bringing this light-based navigation technology to more hospitals, we\u2019re helping clinicians treat complex vascular disease with precision and safety, while reducing radiation risk for patients and teams in the lab,\u201d added Atul Gupta, MD, Chief Medical Officer Diagnosis & Treatment at Philips.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Transforming navigation inside the body \u2013 with light instead of X-ray \u00a0 LumiGuide, powered by Philips Fiber Optic…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":324084,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[23,4514,165476,3,21,19,22,20,25,24],"class_list":["post-324083","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-united-states","tag-america","tag-artificial-intelligence-ai","tag-image-guided-therapy","tag-news","tag-united-states","tag-united-states-of-america","tag-unitedstates","tag-unitedstatesofamerica","tag-us","tag-usa"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/324083","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=324083"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/324083\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/324084"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=324083"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=324083"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=324083"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
