Philips unveils new tele-ultrasound product

Philips has unveiled a new tele-ultrasound technology that will allow clinicians to carry out two-way audio-video calls during live streamed examinations.

The company has worked with the Innovative Imaging Technologies (IIT) on the new product, which is based on Philip's Lumify system and ITT's multi-disciplinary healthcare collaboration platform Reacts.

Dr Yanick Beaulieu, chief executive and founder of IIT, commented: "For years, clinicians in the field have been trying to piece together systems that offer real-time, interactive tele-ultrasound capabilities. Now it has truly arrived.”

Randy Hamlin, point-of-care business leader at Philips, added that by combining exceptional mobility and reliability, Philips Lumify with Reacts will lead to clinicians collaborating, educating and training in brand new ways.

He went on to state that the all-in-one tele-ultrasound solution will enhance care delivery by giving greater confidence to ultrasound clinicians and removing barriers to education, support, and training that have existed for a long time.
