3D device guidance

Real-time, 3D device visualization using light instead of X-ray

As more and more complex procedures are carried out in a minimally -invasive way, there is an unfortunate downside: longer procedure times, radiation exposure and the increased usage of contrast agents. This brings potential health risks to patients and staff. At the same time, there is a growing need to see devices in 3D, in real time, and in relation to the anatomy. We have developed a revolutionary solution that generates clear, full-color 3D visualization of devices inside the body – without the need for X-ray. introducing LumiGuide, powered by Fiber Optic RealShape technology.

Going light years beyond current device visualization techniques

Philips LumiGuide takes you into a new era in device guidance. Using light instead of X- ray, it enables you to visualize devices inside the body in 3D. In full color. And in real- time. Without having to step on the fluoro pedal. We are committed to pushing the frontiers in imaging and visualization of both anatomy and devices – as demonstrated by this entirely new way of helping clinicians navigate during minimally- invasive interventions.
