Royal Philips received regulatory clearance in the USA of Elevate Plus, bringing advanced imaging and a suite of AI and automation capabilities to Philips EPIQ Elite and Affiniti, its flagship ultrasound systems. With CE Mark and 510(k) clearance, Elevate Plus helps standardize routine exams and reduce the need for repeat scanning, delivering more consistent and high-quality ultrasound images faster across users. AI-powered workflow automation helps clinicians acquire high-quality reproducible images faster and with greater confidence. Auto Measure Abdomen, as part of Elevate Plus, uses AI to help automate routine measurement steps, helping to reduce variability and save significant time which is critical in high-volume settings and dynamic exams. Decisions can be made with confidence as measurements deliver over 93% accuracy compared to manual measurements by clinical experts.
Koios AI decision support, previously available off-cart, is now available on-cart for EPIQ Elite and Affiniti ultrasound systems, enabling clinicians to classify breast lesions and thyroid nodules. Philips Ultrasound integrates with Koios Bi-RADs, which offers interpretation and assessment of the risk of malignancy in under 2 seconds, and also leverages Koios Ti-RADS software to support confident lesion classifications using over 350,000 pathology-proven cases. Previously Koios AI decision support was only compatible with Philips Ultrasound images off-cart and uniquely delivered fully automated reporting with smart calipers.
New imaging enhancements are designed to help clinicians reach confident answers faster, especially in challenging exams, by making anatomy and flow easier to visualize. XRes Pro+ can deliver cleaner tissue detail and sharper boundaries, supporting more consistent imaging across a wide range of patient body types. Super Res MVI Pro is designed to enhance microvascular flow visualization, helping to give clinicians clearer insights into blood flow with greater clarity, supporting efficient exams with fewer repeat scans.
EPIQ Elite and Affiniti Elevate Plus deliver long-term value through a modular, upgradable platform designed to extend system lifespan. Remote updates and security enhancements help keep technology current with minimal disruption, while built-in tele-health support promotes consistency across care teams and sites. Elevate Plus is designed to reduce variability, streamline routine exams, and support faster, more informed clinical decisions as care teams face growing demand.
