BV Endura

Mobile C-arm

Ideal for general fluoroscopy and vascular specialization, the BV Endura helps you clearly visualize dynamic images in surgery. This versatile system offers many beneficial features that are designed to enhance your workflow.

• Broaden your vascular capabilities

Carry out venous or iliac access as well as more complex EVAR procedures with high quality imaging, excellent spatial resolution, and broad coverage of our 12” image intensifier. The extended C-arm rotation of up to 135° allows you to make commonly required projections for most vascular procedures.

• 12" Image Intensifier for broad coverage

Positioned as a mid-level performer, Philips BV Endura broadens your vascular capabilities. Our 12” image intensifier provides superb coverage for improved anatomical orientation. And we have extended the C-arm rotation – up to 135° – to provide you with the projections required for most vascular procedures.

• Streamline vascular workflow

We offer a wide range of vascular options with different fluoroscopy and exposure frame rates and optional acquisition modes, like C0₂, to enhance visualization during demanding vascular procedures. The single user concept allows clinicians to use a footswitch and remote control to control various imaging functions from the table: Subtraction, Trace, Roadmap, or Masking.

• 1K² digital imaging enhances quality

The 1K² fully digital imaging chain applies advanced noise reduction and 2D edge enhancements to produce high image quality. BodySmart for exceptional contrast Unique BodySmart software finds, tracks, and defines the field of view to anatomy, no matter where it is on the image. This delivers outstanding image contrast automatically.

• Gain insight into all anatomy

Whether performing orthopedic, abdominal, or vascular procedures, high quality detailed views and good spatial resolution allow for high quality patient care. Our full digital 1K² imaging chain provides advanced noise reduction and 2D edge enhancement to enhance insight into critical vasculature and complex structures. High quality fluoroscopy, subtraction runs, and roadmap guidance support confident decisions, whether you are delicately placing a pedicle screw or deploying a stent in a difficult position.

• Covers full region of interest

With the Automatic Shutter Positioning feature, you can have the most desirable shutter positioning for high- quality images. With just one push of a button, the shutters are automatically positioned with respect to the anatomy of interest.

• Save time and X-ray dose with BodySmart software

To help you work quickly yet gently, Philips unique BodySmart software promotes first time right imaging and dose efficiency. It delivers consistently superb image contrast by precisely adapting the measuring field to the area of interest. This has the potential to reduce retakes and further manage X-ray dose. 

• Make your work flow

Every procedure has its own challenges. The BV Endura gives you the flexibility to handle it all. Thanks to its compact size, this system can be easily moved around tight spaces and brought as close to the operating table as desired. To save time between cases, patient demographics can be entered manually or a worklist retrieved from the network on the Mobile View Station without connecting it to the C-arm. Set the ideal parameters for each procedure with one touch of the Automatic Programmed Fluoroscopy (APF) settings. 

• Automatic contrast/brightness for fast control

Real-time contrast and brightness control at the touch of a button. This simplifies handling and provides fast control for high image quality.

• Ultra-compact for tight OR confines

The MobileView Station’s ultra-compact size makes it easy to move around the tight confines of the OR. Its small footprint enables it to be placed as close as possible to the operating table.

• Manage dose efficiently with DoseWise

With the BV Endura, you benefit from highly evolved X-ray technology with comprehensive dose management features. Philips was the first company to market the mobile C-arm and has over half a century of experience in developing mobile C-arm systems for the surgical environment. That translates into a full range of radiation management features that allow low X-ray dose for lengthy surgical procedures, while providing exceptional quality images.

• Easy connectivity and data accessibility

At the MobileView Station the operator can manually enter patient demographics or retrieve a worklist via the hospital network. Processed images are immediately sent to PACS.

• Manage patient and staff radiation 

Philips unique beam filters with an additional 0.1 millimeter of copper and 1 millimeter of aluminum increase the quality of the X-ray beam and reduce the patient skin dose by 40%.¹ Pulsed Fluoroscopy enhances imaging of dense and complex anatomy to support you in further managing dose. Reduced fluoroscopy modes apply ½ and ¼ the dose of continuous fluoroscopy with no noticeable difference in image quality for static images.

• 19" monitors for easy viewing

Two 19” monitors provide high quality viewing. Monitors can be easily turned toward the physician at any angle at the start of the procedure and back to the operator at the end to process the images. They can be adjusted to a comfortable working height.

• Experience ergonomic viewing and fast clean-up

To provide ergonomic viewing for different medical staff, the Mobile View Station can be placed in a variety of positions. The height and angles of the monitors can be adjusted to comfortable viewing positions. The smooth, sealed controls simplify cleaning.

• Reduce your total cost of ownership with high utilization 

By supporting a wide range of procedures and improving workflow efficiency during imaging, the BV Endura can help you increase system utilization and reduce the total cost of ownership. You can perform a full range of general surgical procedures, as well as dedicated vascular, thoracic, abdominal, pain management, and orthopedic surgery.
