In March of this year, Infraredx and Philips already launched a software solution to enable the integration of the TVC imaging system with Philips' Allura Xper and AlluraClarity interventional X-ray systems. The software enables an easy and quick setup of the TVC imaging system in conjunction with Philips' Allura systems, and it allows clinicians tableside control of the TVC Imaging System using the Allura system controls.
Clinicians can view a TVC composite image, which shows both the near infrared spectroscopy image and the IVUS image, alongside the coronary angiogram (a contrast-enhanced X-ray image of the coronary arteries) on the Philips Allura monitors. The TVC composite image allows for better visualization of lipid core plaques, which are known to cause complications in PCI procedures and suspected of being the principal cause of most heart attacks.
