Advanced visualization for deeper insights with Philips IVUS

IVUS is a catheter-based imaging technology that allows visualization of vessels from the inside out. Cross-sectional images help assess presence and extent of disease, plaque geometry and morphology, guide wire position during lesion crossing, and stent position post-treatment. Only market-leading Philips IVUS portfolio offers a plug-and-play platform for peripheral IVUS and a full line of catheters for arterial and venous interventions.

  1. 79%

    changes in treatment plans with IVUS1, 2

    79%

    changes in treatment plans with IVUS1, 2

    Randomized controlled trial demonstrates that IVUS changed treatment plans in 79% of arterial cases and 57% in venous cases, outlining more informed treatment plans for patients.

  2. 27%

    reductions in major adverse arterial limb events3

    27%

    reductions in major adverse arterial limb events3

    Data from the largest ever real-world clinical analysis of over 700k peripheral arterial and peripheral venous patients on lower extremity peripheral intervention for IVUS, demonstrate a 27% reduction in risk for major adverse limb events including acute limb ischemia or major amputation.

  3. 28%

    reductions in repeat venous interventions, hospitalization or death4

    28%

    reductions in repeat venous interventions, hospitalization or death4

    Data from the largest ever real-world clinical analysis of over 700k peripheral arterial and peripheral venous patients on lower extremity peripheral intervention for IVUS, demonstrate a 28% risk reduction for repeat intervention, hospitalization, or death.

  4. 1st

    ever global consensus guidance on IVUS5

    1st

    ever global consensus guidance on IVUS5

    40 cross-specialty experts achieved consensus for the appropriate use of IVUS in peripheral vascular disease interventions. The new recommendations aim to improve quality care. IVUS is recommended for lower extremity arterial and venous revascularization procedures to guide clinical decisions.

Plays an essential role in disease assessment
IVUS imaging helps aid disease diagnosis, including plaque burden percentage, lesion location and morphology, calcium volume and the presence of thrombus. It also provides analysis of crucial parameters—like luminal cross-sectional measurements.
Disease diagnosis using Philips IVUS technology
Supports treatment decisions during intervention
IVUS provides real-time diagnostic imaging for peripheral artery disease and venous disease. It may also guide clinicians to the correct angioplasty technique for a patient’s individual needs, help assess intervention effectiveness, and assist in endovascular device delivery. The imaging modality also helps clinicians determine the size of the device needed for the best outcome.

Confirms treatment results and optimizes outcomes
IVUS imaging helps to confirm treatment results, including diagnosing dissections, the completeness of treatment, and the apposition and expansion of stent placement.
