An Interview with Prof. Dr. Willinek on Philips SmartPath of how it upgrades your existing imaging systems, mri & radiography systems to latest technology. 

"I am both fascinated by the processes of the human body and working with people. It’s about working with people, but also about being able to make a difference in view of improvements in medical care, both in Diagnosis and Treatment. Thanks to the collaboration of the team with regard to the development of new technologies.

We are moving away from simply replacing medical equipment after five or ten years. Towards putting together packages or programs taking into account future developments. Including updates, upgrades and partial technology replacement. We need true lifecycle solutions enabling us to stay state-of-the art over the next ten years. And this requires close collaboration - a partnership.

Technology needs to keep up with clinical innovations. And sometimes it is innovation in technology that is driving clinical innovation. Modern technology needs to link hospitals, practices and patients.

I anticipate in the next 5 to 10 years, more than 90% of treatments with an invasive component will use image-guidance. Partially even complemented by other innovative technologies like medical robots. This is evolution in Healthcare and this is what is so important in our specialty."
