1 Azurion 7 C20 1
Advanced solution for vascular, non-vascular, embolization to interventional oncology procedures
Key benefits
Changing interventions
With our Live Image Guidance we aim to remove barriers to safer, effective and reproducible
treatments, delivering clinical value where it’s needed most - at the point of patient treatment.
Intelligent and intuitive integration of live imaging, patient information, and procedure-based
applications optimize real time therapy guidance.
The 7 series C20 ceiling system is designed to enhance all the different procedures your
interventional lab faces, from vascular, non-vascular and embolization to interventional oncology
procedures. This future proof solution is designed around a single, standardized hardware and
software platform that can be upgraded and expanded as new needs arise or requirements
change. Its architecture is made to easily integrate with third party applications and devices. A new
workflow approach aims to support interventional teams in carrying out procedures for their
patients, consistently and efficiently with great ease of use.
The Philips Azurion 7 C20 uses a range of Procedure Cards to help optimize and standardize
system set-up for your cases, from routine to mixed procedures.
Procedure Cards can increase the consistency of exams by offering presets (e.g. most-frequently
used, default protocols and user-specified settings) on procedure-, physician- or departmental
level. In addition, hospital checklists and/or protocols can be uploaded into the Procedure Cards to
help safeguard the consistency of interventional procedures and help to minimize preparation
errors.
The Philips Azurion 7 C20 interventional X-ray suite has been specifically designed to save time
by enabling the interventional team to work on all activities in the exam room - and at one or more
work spots in the control room at the same time - without interrupting each other. This leads to
higher throughput and faster exam turnover and contributes to quality of care.
To improve dose management, Philips Zero dose positioning enables you to move the stand and
table to the region of interest shown on the last clinical image hold before a new acquisition is
started, without any radiation.
Specifications
The Philips Azurion series contain a number of features to support a flexible and patient centric
procedural workflow.
The Philips Azurion series (within the limits of the used Operating Room table) are intended for
use to perform:
• Image guidance in diagnostic, interventional and minimally invasive surgery procedures for
the following clinical application areas: vascular, non-vascular, cardiovascular and neuro
procedures.
Line # Description Qty
• Cardiac imaging applications including diagnostics, interventional and minimally invasive
surgery procedures.
The Philips Azurion 7 C20 system comprises five functional building blocks:
1. Geometry
2. X-ray Generation
3. Image Detection

5. Viewing
Each functional building block is explained in further detail including accessories.
1. Geometry
A. 7 C20 stand
The Philips Azurion 7 C20 stand is a stable assembly of a C-arm and a ceiling suspended L-arm.
The X-ray tube and the flat detector are integrated into the C-arm. This provides a compact
assembly completely free from the floor, with maximal positioning flexibility and unrestricted
access to the patient. The robust design ensures excellent reproducibility of projections, needed in
for example subtracted imaging procedures and advanced 3D imaging. The L-arm can be rotated
and moved in longitudinal direction allowing a three-sided patient approach and total body
coverage.
- L-arm rotation around the patient table: +90, 0, -90 degrees.
- L-arm longitudinal movement: 300 cm
This movement features auto-stops at the parking position, cardio/neuro position and lower
peripheral position.
B. Patient Support
The patient support provides very light manual float movement, even for heavy patients, thanks to
the mono-bearing technology. The long flat carbon fiber tabletop provides ample space to place
e.g. catheters and endovascular tools. On customer request, the standard table top can be
replaced by a table top for neuro procedures. This table top has a smaller width at the head end
for better imaging results in neuro procedures.

has a thickness of 7 cm and adapts to the body shape of the patient. It makes the pressure
being divided equally and it recovers when the patient is taken off the mattress. The light
yellow cover is easy to clean. Patients are more relaxed due to the comfort of this mattress.
2. X-ray Generation
A. Generator
The 7 C20 system comprises an integrated, micro-processor controlled Certeray generator based
on high frequency converter technique. The user interface control of this X-ray Generator is
incorporated in the touch screen module, review module, and the on-screen displays. The
Certeray generator comprises:
Program selection:
• Pulsed X-ray up to 3.75 , 7.5 , 15 , 30, 60(optional) frames/s for digital dynamic exposures
• Frame rate extension to 30 frames per second.
The frame rate extension increases the acquisition speed to 15fps and 30fps with a 1024x1024
matrix.
The MRC 200+ GS 04 07 tube assembly and cooling unit CU 3101 for cardiovascular systems
comprises:
• 0.4/0.7 mm nominal focal spot values maximal 30 and 65 kW short time load
• Grid switching at pulsed fluoroscopy and low load exposure (to eliminate soft radiation and
improve image quality)
• Continuous loadability: 3400 W (at 21 degrees C room temperature) / 4000 W (= Max
assembly continuous heat dissipation)
• Application of SpectraBeam dose management
• Tube housing is oil cooled with thermal safety switch
• Maximum anode cooling rate of 1820 kHU/min
• Anode heat storage capacity of 6.4 [MHUeff]
C. System intrinsic
• Fully digital imaging chain in maximizing the utilization and technology of the x-ray

the last 20 seconds of fluoroscopy run. These images or runs can be archived and reviewed
as a regular run.
D. User selections
• removable anti-scatter grid to lower x-ray dose for pediatrics (grid ratio 13:1)
• ECG triggered acquisition, offering the possibility to acquire images at the same phase of
the heart cycle. This applies to the low dose fluoro and exposure program for EP
applications. This allows patient dose reduction by lowering the pulse rate to 1 pulse per
heart and let the physician still focus on relevant items
• three programmable fluoroscopy modes can be selected from the control module. Each
mode has a different composition of dose rate, pulse speed, filter setting, and image
processing (noise reduction, adaptive contour enhancement, and adaptive harmonization)
In Roadmap Pro "Automatic Motion Compensation" (AMC) is added to the roadmap functionality.
During roadmap, small movements of the patient can lead to subtraction artifacts. These artifacts
might conceal important clinical information. "Automatic Motion Compensation" compensates for
rigid, uniform (skeletal/table) translations and is therefore very effective in interventional
(neurology) applications where subtraction imaging is applied. Disclaimer: AMC only corrects
movement artifacts in 2 dimensions. 3 dimensional movements like swallowing or rotation of the
head cannot be corrected.
DoseWise program: Philips DoseWise program is a set of techniques, programs and practices
built into the X-ray system that ensures excellent image quality during each interventional
application, while at the same time reducing x-ray dose at every opportunity. The DoseWise
comprises of three building blocks to help reduce x-ray dose without compromising diagnostic
quality: system intrinsic, user selection and awareness.
On-system monitor display provides and displays body zone specific Air Kerma data (10 zones for
cardiac applications) in numeric and graphical bars.
• Graph displays the accumulated Air Kerma dose for the particular body zone of the actual
projection
• When the accumulated Air Kerma dose of the particular body zone reaches the critical skin
dose level of 2 Gy, it will be indicated on the display and made visible to the x-ray operator.
• Quality improvement: evaluating trends in X-ray dose performance per facility, system and
operator. RDSR enables analysis of average dose levels & variance for routinely performed
exams and procedures. Also, typical system usage can be extracted from the data, helping
to identify root causes behind deviations and measures to improve.
• Analysis of individual patient cases: using dose levels and system usage per procedure
• Alerting for high dose cases, timely identifying patients at risk or deterministic effects, for
proper follow-up.
The image chain with the 20 inch flat panel image detector comprises the following:
Philips Azurion offers a storage capacity of (optionally extendable) of 50,000 images at matrix size
of 1024 x 1024, in 8 or 10 bit depth. With a matrix size of 2048 x 2048 this is 12,500 images.
Maximum number of examinations is 999, with no limit to the maximum number of images per
examination.
Xres is a multi-resolution spatial temporal noise reduction and edge enhancement filter for
interventional applications. Xres exploits the full benefits of dynamic digital flat detector imaging to
enhance sharpness and contrast and has been designed to reduce noise in fluoroscopy and
exposure runs. The settings for Xres Cardio can be customized to improve image quality. Xres is a
Philips unique image processing algorithm developed at Philips Research for medical applications.

9 VesselNavigation Complete 1
VesselNavigation Complete
VesselNavigation Complete provides a package solution for Live Image Guidance for
endovascular procedures allowing to plan, perform and follow-up procedures with confidence. Live
Image Guidance is based on the 3D overlay of the vasculature on the 2D fluoro images. Next to
Vessel Navigator’s functionality to overlay a previous acquired CTA or MRA volume on the live
image, this package allows you to create an overlay with a 3D contrast enhanced angiography
volume (3D Roadmap).
VesselNavigation Complete consists of VesselNavigator, 3D-RA, 3D-RA on Xper Module and 3D-
Roadmap.
VesselNavigator
Line # Description Qty
Reduce your need for contrast in complex endovascular procedures
VesselNavigator allows reuse of 3D vascular anatomical information from existing CTA and MRA
datasets as a 3D roadmap overlay on live X-ray images. With its sophisticated visualization, it
provides an intuitive and continuous 3D roadmap to guide you through vasculature during the
entire procedure. This reduces the need for a contrast enhanced run to create a conventional
roadmap and potentially shortens procedure times.
The essential components of VesselNavigator are:
VesselNavigator can be used for any type of endovascular procedure, except for coronaries and
intracranial vessels. It is especially beneficial for complex and tortuous vasculature where it is
challenging to accurately navigate and place stents or for procedures where contrast use should
be minimized.
One click vessel segmentation; the user can select the relevant vessels for the overlay in the
CT or MR volume in one click
3D landmarks. In the planning step the user can place ring markers for denoting ostia or landing
zones and markers for denoting specific structures like calcifications
Plan angles; VesselNavigator provides three dimensional views of vasculature that allow you to
easily define the right projection angle. These angles can be recalled during the procedure for
optimal navigation and stent placement.
2D registration; The CT or MR volume needs to be matched with the X-ray image for continuous
live overlay. This can be performed with 2 X-ray images from different orientations. Once the 2
images are acquired, the user must manually match the bones on the preoperative scan with the
X-ray image.
3D registration; The existing CTA or MRA volume needs to be matched with the X-ray image for
continuous live overlay. This can be performed with a rotational angiogram or cone beam CT. The
user has to identify 3 identical anatomical points on the rotational scan and the CTA or MRA
volume. The software automatically matches the identified points to register the pre-operative
scan with the X-ray system.
Live image guidance; Real-time overlay of the 3D Vessel segmentation on the live 2D X-ray
images from the Allura X-ray system of the same anatomy. For optimal viewing, the user can
personalize the visualization of the overlay. The overlay can provide additional 3D image guidance
to help the user with navigating the device/catheter to the target, enhancing clinical outcomes.
Table tracking; The overlay will be aligned with the live X-ray image, irrespective of table and
system movements.
Line # Description Qty
Table side control; Registration and live guidance can be controlled from table-side to provide
efficient work-flow during the interventional procedures
Image data for VesselNavigator is stored together with the VesselNavigator movies and snapshots
and can be sent to any optional DICOM compatible device (e.g. PACS/IntelliSpace
Portal/Xcelera). Supported are DICOM XA, DICOM SC, DICOM CT, DICOM MR and DICOM XA
and any PC in a standard PC compatible format (JPEG,AVI). All this data can be reviewed at any
time.
3D-RA
Allura 3D-RA assists physicians in decision making for treatment strategy in endovascular
procedures, neuro or vascular surgery or even radiotherapy.
Allura 3D-RA reduces the number of DSA acquisitions and fluoroscopy time needed to perform an
examination. This means less X-Ray dose for the patient and the medical staff and a reduced
quantity of dye, leading to reduced procedure costs.
Allura 3D-RA provides a unique assessment after treatment due to the use of non-subtracted
images that allows to shows devices stents, coils, clips and provide the optimal stand projection
for endovascular treatment.
Allura 3D-RA provides a wide range of communication facilities to export 3D images.
1 Image Acquisition
Image acquisition is performed with the Rotational Angiography feature of the Allura Xper FD
series with the flexibility to position the C-arm in either head or side position.
C-arm in Head position: the Rotational Angiography run is performed over a scan range of 240
degrees with a rotation speed up to 55 degrees/sec.
C-arm in Side position: the Rotational Angiography run is performed over a scan range of 180
degrees with a rotation speed up to 30 degrees/sec.
2 3D Vessel Reconstruction
The rotational run is automatically transferred and displayed as a 3D vessel model: with the Real-
Time digital link (option) 120 images are reconstructed into a 3 dimensional model within seconds.
Additional reconstructions, using the Reconstructive Zooming Technique, can be performed as
well.

stenting, 3D-APC and 3D Follow C-arc can be performed. With the mouse tablet all other functios
can e performed so that there is is no need for the Physician to leave the examination room.
3D Automatic Position Control (3D-APC); When the optimal working position has been choosen
via the Allura 3D-RA interventional tool, the C-arc will automatically steer to this position.
3D Follow C-arc; When the position of the C-arc (not using any X-ray) is changed, the 3D volume
will automatically follow the position of the C-arc. This means the position of the C-arc (and
therefore the 2D projection) and the 3D volume are always aligned. As last seen; when the user
leaves the patient in the model and later selects that patient again, the Allura 3D-RA interventional
tool will return to the image last used by the user.

25 2D Perfusion 1
2D Perfusion brings functional imaging in the interventional suite and allows assessing tissue
perfusion during the intervention. 2D Perfusion is based on a digital subtraction angiography
(DSA) and calculates the transit time of the contrast trough the vessels, displaying it as a full color
image.
2D Perfusion can be used for the identification of perfusion alterations in tissue of vascular
pathologies and it allows to compare side by side pre, peri, and post-procedural perfusion images
to identify treatment end-point and to verify procedure outcome.
The color legend indicates the perfusion parameters that are represented by each color in the
displayed image. The analysis on the time density curve can also be performed while comparing
pre and post interventional images to quantify perfusion differences within a selected region of
interest.
Two different types of region of interest (ROI) can be drawn: an elliptical ROI or a freeform ROI. If
the ROI is repositioned, the curve in the analysis graph is updated automatically.
Once the ROI is selected, the time density curve is generated real time and the average value of
the selected parameter is calculated and displayed. When comparing pre and post intervention
images, it’s possible to draw a region of interest and it will be automatically drawn in the
comparative image. It will also calculate the time density curve of both images, to easily evaluate
pre and post intervention differences.

29 OncoSuite complete 1
OncoSuite provides a complete solution for Tumor Embolization and Percutaneous Ablation
procedures in Interventional Oncology. Its 3D Live Image Guidance is based on the superior
visualization with XperCT Dual, tumor embolization with EmboGuide and its percutaneous
Ablation with XperGuide with the Ablation option.
OncoSuite consists of XperCT Dual, EmboGuide and XperGuide with Ablation option.
XperCT Dual extends the capabilities of the interventional suite offering CT like imaging to
visualize bone, soft tissue and vessels in case of contrast enhanced acquisition. XperCT Dual
protocols are available covering routine procedures such as biopsies and drainages but also
advanced procedures such as abdominal oncological imaging up to neuro high resolution stenting.
All protocols can be selected at the tableside via the XperModule.
The DualPhase dual view functionality allows the simultaneous visualization of two 3D datasets
acquired at different times of the procedure such as the arterial and post-arterial contrast
enhancement in oncologic liver imaging. In this DualView, XperCT Dual allows the segmentation
of multiple lesions at the same time in the viewed datasets.
XperCT Dual includes Metal Artifact Reduction to reduce the artifacts caused by metal presence in
the region of interest. In case the original XperCT shows metal artifacts, the interventional
radiologist can perform a second reconstruction and select for Metal Artifact Reduction, which will
Line # Description Qty
remove the artifacts caused by the metal present. The most typical examples of metal presence
are: metal implants, coils or stents with stainless steel structures. Moreover, BMI Noise Reduction
is included to reduce the noise caused by large size patients.
Note: BMI Noise Reduction is only available when Abdominal XperCT runs are selected
The XperCT volume can be viewed in the control room and in the examination room. The viewing
package comprises:
The XperCT volume can be matched with (when additional options are available) Allura 3D-RA
and pre acquired CT, PET/CT or MR volumes. This view allows combining multiple images from
different modalities in order to provide additional anatomical insight. This multimodality volume can
be viewed with the following functionalities:
EmboGuide provides workflow-guided Embolization support in three steps. The first step
comprises of the Identification and Segmentation of multiple lesions. Secondly, the feeders of the
segmented lesions are identified. The Automatic feeder detection function supports the user with
this. Finally, Live Image Guidance is used in order to reach each of the identified feeders for a
selective or super-selective Embolization.
Depending on Allura configurations, XperCT Dual allows obtaining two manual forward scans or
two automatic rotational scans with a user-defined delay between them (automatic rotational
scans only for Allura release 8.2 or higher). In case of two automatic rotational scans, the first
scan is performed in a forward direction while the second one is performed in reverse direction
(DualPhase wiper rotation). In both configurations, the first phase can be used to show early tumor
contrast uptake and its feeding vessels, while the second scan can be used to depict the delayed
contrast uptake in lesion, determining its vascularity and perfusion. Optimal automatic high volume
reconstruction is in this respect is essential to secure appropriate feeding vessel detection in the
first phase and a good soft-tissue contrast in the second phase. The 3D lesion segmentation is an
interactive user-guided tool that allows isolating regions of interest in a 3D volume using image-
specific features. The tool can be used for user-guided segmentation of lesions from MR, CT or
XperCT volumes. A workflow-driven planning tool, building on already available vessel detection
and volume cut features, can then be used to highlight the feeding vessels to the lesion. Real-time
overlay and registration of the 3D volume on live 2D X-ray images from the Allura X-ray system of
the same anatomy can be used as additional 3D image guidance to support the navigation of the
device/catheter. Planning data, like the earlier annotated feeding vessels and/or 3D landmarks can
be displayed on 2D-3D fused images as supporting information.
EmboGuide provides the following functions:
• Automatic Feeder Detection; supports the user in analyzing the vasculature of lesions by
giving the initial suggestions of the feeding vessels of the segmented lesions. The detected
feeding vessels will be annotated and added to the planning.
• Manually add and/or remove feeding vessels; after running the automatic feeder detection
function, the user can verify and refine the planning by manually adding and/or removing
feeding vessels.
• Follow Feeder; for verification, the user may use the Follow Feeder function. This function
allows the user to trace the path of a single annotated feeding vessel to verify whether it
traces into a targeted lesion.
Line # Description Qty
• 3D Landmarks; landmarks can be put on the 3D volume as additional information to support
with the navigation of the catheter.
• Live 3D Image Guidance; real-time overlay and registration of the 3D volume on the live 2D
X-ray images from the Allura X-ray system of the same anatomy, can provide additional 3D
image guidance to help the user with navigating the device/catheter to the embolization
target.
• Storage of the live 2D-3D overlay runs; the real-time overlay of the 3D volume with the live
2D X-ray images from the Allura X-ray system can be recorded and stored for reviewing at
any time.
• Table-side control; to provide efficient work-flow during the interventional procedures, the
most frequently used functions can be controlled from table-side.
Image data for EmboGuide is stored together with the EmboGuide movies and snapshots and can
be sent to any optional DICOM compatible device (e.g. PACS/IntelliSpace Portal/Xcelera).
Supported are DICOM XA, DICOM SC, DICOM CT and DICOM 3D and any PC in a standard PC
compatible format (JPEG,AVI). All this data can be reviewed at any time.
OncoSuite Ablation allows planning of the ablation zone with a high degree of accuracy using
conventional methods. XperGuide ablation software helps to plan and guide the specific ablation
zones and distance between the ablation needles in 3D based on the manufacturer’s
specifications of each needle. OncoSuite Ablation shows the isotherm of each needle on an
XperCT overlay or on a pre-acquired MR, CT or PET/CT volume. OncoSuite Ablation assists
clinicians in planning the optimal placement of the ablation needle to cover the targeted lesion.
The needle path can be planned by drawing it or by defining entry and target locations on XperCT,
MR, CT or PET/CT slices. By allowing the precise planning of multiple needles, XperGuide's
ablation software assists clinicians in treating large tumors and thereby helping to prevent re-do.
OncoSuite Ablation consists of both XperGuide and the XperGuide Ablation option.
XperGuide enables real-time needle guidance in the angio suite. Virtual needle paths are created
by XperCT Dual data and on overlays of previous acquired MR, CT, or PET/CT datasets. In order
to visualize the actual needle path versus the virtual path that is planned upfront, XperGuide offers
the possibility to match real-time 2D fluoroscopy images with 3D volume of XperCT Dual, CT,
PET/CT or MR datasets. A wide range of gantry projections can be used to define the needle path.
This volumetric dataset can be viewed in any slice direction providing optimal sight.
Path planning in XperGuide can be done by:
XperGuide data, like XperGuide movies and snapshots, can be exported to any optional DICOM
compatible device (e.g. PACS/ViewForum/Xcelera). Supported are DICOM XA, DICOM SC,
DICOM CT and DICOM 3D and any PC in a standard PC compatible format (JPEG,AVI).
XperGuide movies and snapshots can be stored/achieved on:
XperGuide Ablation is an extension to the XperGuide software to facilitate the planning of tumor
ablation procedures. It supports all percutaneous ablation techniques (RF, microwave and cryo-
ablation) by displaying the isotherm of the chosen ablation needle. It allows the visualization of
multiple needles by entering their thermal characteristics, and the assessment of their combined
impact in the ablation zone. A virtual ablation needle with its thermal characteristics is displayed on
a 3 dimensional XperCT volume or previously acquired CT, MR or PET/CT data to verify optimal
positioning of the needle and obtain total tumor coverage. The thermal characteristics of each
needle consist of the width, breadth and front of its ablation zones. Per needle up to three ablation
zones of different isotherms can be defined. XperGuide Ablation allows to plan and store up to 60
different types of thermal needle characteristics simultaneously.
All thermal characteristics can be stored and transferred to other Allura systems. After the needle
planning is performed, the 2D fluoroscopy overlay on the 3D volume allows real time needle
guidance along the planned trajectory on XperCT, MR, CT and PET/CT datasets. During live
needle guidance it is possible to adjust the ablation transparency and modify the previous plan.
After the needle(s) are positioned, it’s possible to control the effective ablation target with the
previous plan.
