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
