Innovations that matter every day
See how Philips can help you realize your full potential with general imaging ultrasound: Enhance diagnostic confidence in managing liver disease, create workflow efficiencies with automated quantification tools, expand access to care through remote collaboration capabilities and make the best use of resources through innovative partnership strategies.
Diagnostic confidence
Manage liver patients with confidence
Elevate confidence in liver diagnosis with the latest general imaging ultrasound advances from Philips.
Diagnostic confidence
Quantifying liver fat with ultrasound
Current standards for diagnosing and measuring non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) – liver biopsy and MRI – are impractical for various reasons. The emerging technique of ultrasound attenuation imaging could be helpful in screening for NAFLD. A leading physician explains how.
Did you know ?
Linked strongly with obesity, it is estimated that
non-alcoholic fatty liver disease affects as many as one billion individuals worldwide. Learn more about liver fat quantification (LFQ) in this Philips white paper.
Now that there is a quantitative way of measuring liver fat, it will make it a lot easier for us to let the referring physician determine where the patient is quantitatively on the NAFLD spectrum.”

Efficiency
Easy workflow by design
Streamline workflow with end-to-end efficiency enhancers that help create better experiences for users and patients alike.
Did you know ?
Early detection and quantification of NAFLD is critical to patient workflow, as lifestyle modifications can potentially help to prevent and even reverse disease progression.
Noninvasive liver assessment made easy
Experience efficiency at every step during noninvasive liver assessment procedures, including liver fat quantification (LFQ), from data acquisition to report generation.
Elastography answers in less than a second
ElastPQ (pSWE) is as easy as one, two, three.
Perform a right intercostal scan of the liver. Set the ROI between 1 and 2 cm below the liver capsule. Press ‘Update’.
In less than a second, the measurement results are displayed on the image. It is that easy and fast.
Multiple samples can be easily recorded and generated into a single report.
Access to Care
Shorten the distance to diagnosis with tele-ultrasound
Staff limitations can make it challenging to deliver the full value of ultrasound to all who could benefit. Help close the gaps with Philips tele-ultrasound remote diagnosis capabilities.
Extend your team without expanding it
With Collaboration Live, physical distance is no longer an obstacle. Quickly and securely talk, text, screen-share and video stream directly from the ultrasound system to wherever you are.
*Contract required. Collaboration Live is intended for remote diagnostic use on EPIQ or Affiniti ultrasound release 9.0.
You can have better patient care with access to more radiologists who specialize in several different areas.”
