Royal Philips has announced the launch of their image-guided therapy mobile C-arm system 9000—Zenition 90 Motorized, designed to help surgeons deliver high-quality care to more patients at the European Congress of Radiology (ECR) annual meeting (February 28–3 March, 2024, Vienna, Austria).
The new mobile C-arm with expanded capabilities is designed to meet complex vascular needs and a range of clinical procedures such as cardiac interventions, pain management and urology. Zenition 90 Motorized will be commercially available from the second quarter of 2024.
In a recent press release, Philips has stated that the Zenition 90 Motorized is an intuitive C-arm that allows the surgeon to control it from the table-side with user-friendly controls and time-saving features, giving surgeons greater flexibility and independence. It delivers state-of-the-art image quality for the most challenging procedures and is designed to meet complex vascular needs. The system allows greater clinical efficiency thanks to its automated workflows, the image controls via the Touch Screen Module and the advanced software solutions.
“During complex procedures, it’s vital to be able to rely on surgical imaging systems. As surgeons navigate their way through challenging vasculature, the priority is to quickly visualise small anatomical details while limiting contrast use and X-ray dose,” said Mark Stoffels, business leader Philips image-guided therapy systems. “The new Zenition 90 Motorized empowers medical teams to confidently perform a wide range of interventions while achieving the best possible outcome for their patients.”The launch of the Zenition 90 Motorized follows the recent launch of the Philips Zenition 30 C-arm, and is the latest device in the renewed portfolio of the company’s Zenition C-arm systems.
Philips have added that data collected from usability studies from clinicians in Europe and the USA show that the Zenition 90 Motorized performs beneficially in simulated environments. Their results showed that 100% of users found that, with the table side operator function, they have complete control over C-arm movements, and 97% reported that workflow features such as automatic vascular outlining will help save time during procedures.
As part of its stated commitment to sustainability and providing customers with responsible choices, Philips has also leveraged its EcoDesign process for the Zenition 90 Motorized to improve product life by 25% and power efficiency by 13%.
