PercuNav is the only commercially available soft tissue navigation system that provides multimodal image fusion and can be used alone with any single imaging modality, such as CT or ultrasound. When used in conjunction with a Philips iU22 xMATRIX ultrasound system, digital streaming via a digital navigation link enables high quality digital images and most scan parameters to be transferred from an
iU22 xMATRIX system to the PercuNav system streamlining workflow.
This capability enhances the robust timesavers already present in the iU22, which include volume imaging for information and measurements not possible with traditional 2D views, and the C5-1 PureWave transducer that can reduce failed ultrasound exams by up to 69 percent.

Leverage the strength of your images |
PercuNav image fusion enables users to leverage the strength of each modality to create an information-rich, fused image.
Capabilities:
- Display of corresponding data from multiple imaging modalities as overlaid and side-by-side images with areas of interest automatically marked on images
- Easy localization and comparison of hard-to-find or ambiguous ultrasound targets by referring to related CT or MR images with corresponding areas of interest marked on the different modality images
- Aid in lesion documentation for oncology and therapy monitoring
- Possible reduction of repeat ultrasound exams for interventional planning or device guidance
- Possible reduction of the number of CT scans
- Import segmented data sets from Philips Extended Brilliance Workspace (EBW) workstation
Product features include:
- Ultrasound navigation
- CT and MR navigation
