With CT representing one of the most ubiquitous imaging modalities in modern medicine, AI-enabled enhancements such as Precise Suite that focus on diagnostic confidence and workflow improvement have huge potential to make a positive impact on the delivery of value-based healthcare. Karim Boussebaa, Philips Senior Vice President and General Manager of CT and AMI
Improving the patient experience
OnPlan gantry controls Increase productivity and consistency, while minimising time spent away from the patient with OnPlan patient-side touchscreen gantry controls. Do more directly from the CT scanner, such as set-up and pre-scan adjustments. Enable inter-operator consistency and reduce time-to-results by 19%5 with adaptive intelligence at every step of the exam. 84% of Incisive users agree that patient-side gantry controls have improved patient satisfaction, while 48% report workflow improvement of 7+ exams per day2.
Image quality without compromise With Precise Image, improved image quality can be achieved without compromise - simultaneously delivering up to 80% lower radiation dose, up to 60% improved low-contrast detectability AND up to 85% lower noise7. “The image quality is so amazing. The scanner is fast, it’s pretty, it’s easy to use. We love our Philips scanner.” Erika Griggs, Director of Radiology, Iron County Medical Center
Tube for Life guarantee2 - the offer of a lifetime
We believe so strongly in the reliability of our vMRC CT scan tube that we’ll replace it if necessary over the entire life of the system at no cost to you. This can help you to lower operating costs by an estimated £270,000.4

Minimise unplanned downtime
Minimize unplanned downtime through sensors that continuously monitor internal and external operating parameters, helping you plan for maintenance. Remote 24/7 monitoring allows many issues to be resolved remotely, and a high first-time fix rate when an on-site visit is needed.
Remote services resolve 35% of issues without the need for on-site service, improving system uptime and enabling a first-time fix rate of 73% when on-site service is needed.8
Keep your investment up to date
Keeping technology up to date can be difficult. Let us help boost your clinical capability and operational performance over the life of your CT system. With Philips Technology Maximizer you can stay clinically advanced while maximizing your imaging investment – without the hassle of multiple approvals over the system lifecycle.

1Based on a third-party survey of 145 users across eight countries. 2Life of the product (or CT system) is defined by Philips as 10 years. Tube for Life guarantee availability varies by country. Please contact your local Philips sales representative for details. 3Data collected across Philips portfolio of scanners using Remote Services. 4Actual operation costs for customers vary significantly because many variables exist (such as CT make and model, hospital/imaging center size, case mix, system usage). The potential savings identified estimates the avoidance of purchasing replacement tubes over 10-year useful life of a CT system, based on an average selling price of £90,000 per replacement tube and estimated tube life of three years. There can be no guarantee that all customers will achieve this result. 5Based on a study performed at Oz Radiology Group. Results from case studies are not predictive of results in other cases. Results in other cases may vary. 6According to the definition of AI from the EU High-Level Expert Group 7Lower image noise, improved low-contrast detectability, and/or dose reduction were tested using reference body protocols. All metrics were tested on phantoms. Low-contrast detectability tests were performed using 1.0 mm slices, and tested on the MITA CT IQ Phantom (CCT183, The Phantom Laboratory), using an auto tool “CHO” (Channelized Hotelling Observer).
