About Philips

Creating a healthier future
At Philips, we look beyond technology to the experiences of consumers, patients, providers and caregivers across the health continuum — from healthy living and prevention to diagnosis, treatment and home care. We unlock insights leading to innovative solutions that enable better care at lower cost. With leading research, design and innovation capabilities, we partner with our customers to transform the delivery of healthcare.

From the moment a patient is referred to radiology to the time her clinical status is known, her care depends on a cascade of complex workflows where precision is essential. Every person involved plays a critical role in getting it right. And every contributor must be empowered with the right data, technology, and clinical insights to enable that patient’s pathway to precision diagnosis and therapy.

We work as trusted partners to our customers, helping them to adapt to healthcare's evolving world and to advance digital health transformation at defining moments in a patient’s journey.

Philips IntelliSpace Portal is an Advanced Visualization and analysis solution that is designed to help physicians to diagnose, follow-up, and communicate, across clinical domains and modalities, with one seamless, connected workflow. Discover more.
