Philips Volcano Core M2 Vascular System

The Philips Volcano Core M2 is a state-of-the-art vascular imaging and physiology system, designed to provide high-resolution intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurements for precise cardiovascular and peripheral vascular assessments. This advanced system enhances diagnostic accuracy, procedural efficiency, and patient outcomes in coronary and peripheral interventions.

Key Features & Benefits:

1. High-Resolution Intravascular Imaging (IVUS)

• Real-Time Vessel Visualization: Provides detailed cross-sectional images of vessels for accurate lesion assessment

• Auto-Pullback Functionality: Ensures consistent imaging of plaque morphology and stent placement

• Virtual Histology IVUS (VH-IVUS): Differentiates tissue composition for precise lesion characterization

• Compatible with Philips IVUS Catheters: Uses Eagle Eye Platinum, Revolution, and other Philips catheters

2. Advanced Physiological Assessment (FFR & iFR)

• Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR): Quantifies lesion severity to guide stent placement decisions

• Instant Wave-Free Ratio (iFR): Provides a hyperemia-free physiological assessment, reducing the need for adenosine

• iFR Scout Pullback Technology: Enables physiological mapping of lesion severity for treatment planning

3. Intuitive Workflow & Seamless Integration

• User-Friendly Interface: Touchscreen and intuitive software for efficient operation

• DICOM & EMR Connectivity: Integrates with hospital imaging and patient record systems

• Compact, Ergonomic Design: Ideal for cath labs, hybrid ORs, and interventional suites

4. Versatile Clinical Applications

• Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) Management: Assists in stent optimization and lesion assessment

• Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) Diagnosis: Enhances treatment planning for lower extremity interventions

• Structural Heart Procedures: Supports transcatheter valve interventions and complex vascular cases
