飞利浦宣布FDA批准增强型LumiGuide导丝，标志着其突破性的3D设备引导技术治疗的第1000名患者2024年9月17日| 2分钟阅读增强型更长版本的飞利浦LumiGuide导丝使美国临床医生能够可视化更广泛的导管国际公认的血管外科医生Carlos Timaran，MD，是第一个使用新的LumiGuide导丝进行复杂的主动脉修复的患者，该程序标志着由飞利浦独特的光纤RealShape（FORS）引导技术协助的世界第1000次手术荷兰阿姆斯特丹-皇家飞利浦（纽约证券交易所：PHG，AEX：PHIA），全球卫生技术领导者今天宣布推出160cm FDA批准版本的独特LumiGuide血管内导航线。

This enhanced LumiGuide guidewire, which utilizes the company’s breakthrough Fiber Optic RealShape (FORS) technology, was used for the first time on a patient by Professor and vascular surgeon Carlos Timaran, MD, an internationally recognized expert in advanced endovascular techniques. He used the technology during a complex aortic aneurism repair operation, marking the 1000th patient treated milestone using FORS technology since first clinical use of the technology in 2020.

这种增强型LumiGuide导丝利用了该公司突破性的光纤RealShape（FORS）技术，首次由国际公认的先进血管内技术专家Carlos Timaran教授和血管外科医生在患者身上使用。他在一次复杂的主动脉瘤修复手术中使用了这项技术，这是自2020年该技术首次临床应用以来，使用FORS技术治疗患者的第1000个里程碑。

The introduction of a longer FORS-enabled LumiGuide Navigation Wire enables US clinicians to visualize a broader range of catheters and expands usage of this technology to patients in America treated in centers equipped with LumiGuide. Usually during minimally-invasive surgeries, doctors have to rely on live X-ray imaging (fluoroscopy) to help them manipulate interventional devices such as catheters inside the patient’s body.

引入更长的支持FORS的LumiGuide导航线使美国临床医生能够可视化更广泛的导管，并将该技术的使用扩展到美国配备LumiGuide的中心接受治疗的患者。通常在微创手术中，医生必须依靠实时X射线成像（透视）来帮助他们操纵介入装置，例如患者体内的导管。

But real-time X-ray fluoroscopy comes with radiation risks for bo.

但实时 X 射线透视检查会给博带来辐射风险。
