Instructions for use
Characteristics
Philips Visions PV IVUS aids in disease assessment
Philips Visions PV IVUS augments angiography by providing precise information on vessel architecture and pathology including: vessel size and percent stenosis; plaque morphology; the significance and presence of dissection; the severity of calcium; and the presence of thrombus.
Philips Visions PV IVUS informs intervention decisions
Philips Visions PV IVUS improves treatment strategy by providing additional information to guide and decide: appropriate angioplasty technique based on true vessel size and lesions length; appropriate device selection based on plaque geometry and morphology and guidewire orientation; and if a patient is at high risk of resttenosis.
Philips Visions PV IVUS confirms technical success
Philips Visions PV IVUS helps confirm the completeness of treatment by assessing and confirming: significant residual narrowing or dissection in the target lesion; the apposition and expansion of stent placement; and whether or not the patient requires a thrombolytic drip.
