Develop a system that works our wayBy continuously studying workfl ow issues in

key hospitals throughout the world, Philips

gains the knowledge to design practical

solutions that solve everyday challenges.

One example is the Eleva concept, which

increases productivity by adapting the

system to the way you work.

Going one step beyond the standard pre-set

that many systems offer, the EasyDiagnost

Eleva delivers the ability to customize a

variety of operator-, exam- and patient-

related parameters. Extended programmable

defaults include SpectraBeam RF fi lter

selection, IQ and dose settings and pre-

defi ned print formats according to each

user’s preferences.

Our Eleva system performs to your

specifi cations from pre-exam to archive.

New patients, different exam types,

multiple operators, parallel functions – the

EasyDiagnost Eleva adapts to each with ease,

increasing effi ciency and throughput.

Empowered by a highly intuitive user

interface, all functions are located exactly

where you expect them. And if you connect

the EasyDiagnost Eleva to your RIS, the

RIS automatically triggers the appropriate

pre-sets, increasing procedural effi ciency

and minimizing the risk of mistakes. In every

aspect, the system is designed to support

you in providing quality care.

“Will the system complement

our IT infrastructure?”

The EasyDiagnost Eleva’s complete DICOM

functionality, including DICOM worklist management

(WLM), Modality Performed Procedure Steps (MPPS),

store, storage commit and query retrieve, takes full

advantage of your IT infrastructure – enabling complete

integration with your PACS and RIS. Its ViewForum

software for integrated viewing and processing offers

access to images and information at any workspot you

prefer – always with the same innovative and intuitive

user interface. And because the RIS automatically

activates just the right Eleva pre-sets, exam effi ciency is

realized. In addition, the EasyDiagnost Eleva meets IHE

standards.

Are there smart solutions for all applications?Providing superior functionality, the EasyDiagnost Eleva covers a

wide range of applications, from gastro-intestinal, various iodine

and vascular procedures to radiography using an additional ceiling

suspended tube.

DRF room solution

High-end, fully-digital solutions are also possible with the

EasyDiagnost Eleva, simply by adding a digital vertical stand and/or

a digital detector in the table. In addition to all of the convenience

advantages of fi lmless and cassetteless workfl ow, effi ciency is

enhanced, exam times are faster, and room utilization is optimized.

And of course, this digital capability fully encompasses the

ease-of-use Eleva concept.

Within the DRF room solution the range of applications performed

can be extended further with the inclusion of the height adjustable

trolley.

Smart design results in intuitive handling and ease

of movement

I need excellent image quality, I want low dose.Can I have both?

You can with Philips. EasyDiagnost Eleva delivers top-of-

the-line digital imaging by optimizing every component of

the imaging chain. This innovative system offers in-pulse

control during X-ray generation, CCD technology for

image detection, fl icker free monitors and Extended

Digital Imaging for image processing and post-processing.

However, achieving exceptional image quality is only half

the battle. Doing so while maintaining the lowest dose is

the true challenge. Enter DoseWise, the unique Philips

approach to dose management. When it comes to dose

management, Philips cares more.

Innovative solutions in three areas:

Smart beam management

The Eleva programming provides the

right exposure and fl uoroscopy settings

according to the size of the patient, the area

of examination, and type of intervention –

customized to your diagnostic requirements.

In addition, the X-ray beam can be managed

with in-pulse control technology, Spectra

Beam RF, pre-set collimation and parkable

grid.

Less radiation time

The EasyDiagnost Eleva uses unique

technologies that limit radiation while

maximizing image quality. GCF – a

combination of in-pulse fl uoroscopy control

and grid switching – and in-pulse controlled

intelligent exposures (IQX) ensure that

images are right the fi rst time, every time.

More dose awareness

Dose measurements, calculations and

reports create more dose awareness for

you, your patients, and medical staff.

DoseWise: Highest image quality at the

lowest possible dose
