Philips Zenition (family)

Philips's current mobile C-arm platform, replacing the Veradius family. Shared workflow and image-chain features with the fixed Azurion interventional platform, creating a unified user experience across hybrid and mobile use. Available in multiple detector-size and clinical-segment tiers.

History

  • 2018 — Zenition launches as the Veradius successor.
  • 2020s — full lineup extends across orthopedic / general / vascular / cardiac tiers; integration with Azurion-class workflow consolidates the Philips mobile / fixed line.

Variants

  • Zenition 10 — entry, orthopedic / pain management.
  • Zenition 30 — mid, general surgical.
  • Zenition 50 — premium, vascular / cardiac.
  • Zenition 70 — high-end, cardiovascular.

Shared platform characteristics

  • Flat-panel detector across all variants — eliminates image-intensifier distortion at the periphery.
  • Grid-controlled pulsed fluoroscopy for dose reduction.
  • Azurion-class image processing on mid / premium tiers — visual continuity with the fixed cath / IR rooms.
  • Compact design, tool-free positioning — drape-friendly OR ergonomics.
  • ConnectOS-derived workflow consistent with Azurion.

Distinctive technology

  • Cross-platform workflow consistency with Azurion — operator teams trained on the fixed-room platform see the same UI patterns on Zenition mobile.
  • Pulsed-fluoro dose-reduction posture inherited from the Allura / Azurion image-processing lineage.

Market position

Mid-to-premium mobile C-arm tier. Direct competitors:

Predecessor

Refurb posture

  • Newer line — refurb supply small as installed base is younger; OEM service contracts dominate the operating-cost structure.
  • Tier (10 / 30 / 50 / 70) is a meaningful price-determining variable; clinical capability scales with tier.
  • Software / control-system version affects supportability and dose-reduction posture.
