Royal Philips has introduced the DoseWise Portal 2.0, a comprehensive radiation dose management software solution to manage radiation exposure risk to patients and clinicians. The software solution allows healthcare providers to record, collect, and analyze imaging radiation exposure, so they can make data-driven decisions to manage dose, and ultimately, ensure patient and staff well-being. Updates to the DoseWise Portal 2.0 feature an enhanced dashboard for viewing patient data that introduces a sophisticated peak skin dose reporting feature to help manage patients undergoing complex fluoroscopy procedures.

During fluoroscopy procedures, surgeons use high levels of radiation so they can guide insertions within the body, producing highly localized radiation dose levels on the skin at the entry point, which can be a health risk. DoseWise Portal 2.0 alerts healthcare providers when excessive levels are reached that require follow up. The solution also further integrates with DoseAware Xtend for staff exposure data, enabling providers to ensure their staff is protected from high levels of radiation.
