Congenital heart disease

Solutions that work together to provide exceptional imaging and efficient workflow

When patients are at their most vulnerable, every move counts. Minimally invasive congenital heart disease interventions are changing the therapeutic outcomes for young patients and the rising number of adults with CHD. Philips CHD suite is designed to adapt to your workflow needs, providing powerful imaging to help you decide, guide, treat and confirm your interventions, while minimizing the harmful effects of radiation and contrast.1,2

Enhancing minimally invasive congenital cardiac interventions

Congenital Heart Diseases (CHD) present the distinctive challenge of uniquely complex pathoanatomy in some of the most vulnerable patients. Our CHD Suite aims to facilitate profound imaging insights while minimizing the patient burdens of radiation and contrast load.

Accomplish gentle care with powerful insights

  • Minimize the patient burdens of radiation and contrast load.
  • Enhance real-time assessment, treatment plans, and navigation.
  • Leverage multimodality integration and fusion.
  • Make use of intuitive 3D imaging tools.

Solutions that work together to provide exceptional imaging and efficient workflow

  • ClarityIQ provides high-quality imaging, delivering excellent visibility at low X-ray dose.
  • Import of diagnostic and planning information from CT or MRI to use as live overlay guidance.
  • Real-time ultrasound-fluoroscopy fusion to visualize soft tissue and interventional devices simultaneously.
  • In-room 3D rotational angiography to enhance the understanding and assessment of complex anatomy.
