Ingenuity FLEX CT scanner: remarkable flexibility for low-dose precision imaging
The Philips Ingenuity FLEX CT scanner is a powerhouse of innovation designed to meet the growing needs of healthcare professionals for image quality, clinical performance and operational efficiency. Equipped with cutting-edge technologies from the Ingenuity platform, this system delivers precision medical imaging while significantly reducing the radiation dose administered to patients. It is the ideal solution for facilities seeking to balance clinical performance, patient safety and optimised return on investment.
At the heart of Ingenuity FLEX is the exclusive iDose technology, which significantly improves spatial resolution, even at low doses. This technology optimises image quality while ensuring fast acquisition, which is essential for motion-sensitive examinations such as virtual colonoscopy, lung studies and examinations in bariatric patients. With iDose⁴, the majority of reference protocols can be reconstructed in less than 60 seconds, reducing waiting times and increasing patient throughput per day.
The scanner's architecture has been designed for flexibility of use. It allows image quality to be customised to the specific needs of each patient, while facilitating clinical collaboration. By integrating automated tools and accelerated data processing, Ingenuity FLEX helps simplify imaging procedures, promoting smooth and efficient care. This scanner also integrates the IntelliSpace Portal (optional), which improves communication between radiologists and referring clinicians by providing remote access to images and analysis tools.
Durability and scalability are at the heart of the Ingenuity FLEX design. With the Philips SmartPath programme, the device can be upgraded to the Ingenuity FLEX32 version or new software and hardware features can be added over time. This model adapts to changing clinical needs while optimising the equipment's life cycle. In addition, the system is based on the MRC X-ray tube, renowned for its reliability and rapid cooling capacity, ensuring stable performance even during intensive use.
The Ingenuity FLEX CT scanner offers an optimal balance between image quality, patient safety, operational efficiency and technological scalability. It is a strategic choice for any facility looking to modernise its imaging platform or enhance its diagnostic capabilities while keeping costs under control.
