Philips has had a troublesome relationship with the FDA. In 2017,\u00a0Philips was ordered to tighten controls on its manufacturing facilities in the United States.\u00a0Inspections between 2009 and 2015 revealed that Philips did not meet all quality requirements for the production of defibrillators. The enhanced supervision by the FDA was applied for a period of five years.<\/p>\n<h3>iF Design Awards<\/h3>\n<p>Philips claims that thanks to the DigitalDiagnost C90&#8217;s Eleva Tube Head, the workflow can be speeded up by over 17% per examination. &#8220;Its touch screen display transfers operation into the examination room to allow for more time with the patient.&#8221; The design of the DigitalDiagnost C90\u2019s Eleva Tube was recently recognized by the prestigious iF Design Awards in the categories of both product and service\/user experience design.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.ioplus.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Philips_DigitalDiagnost_C90_camera_on_tube_head.download.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-166047\" src=\"https:\/\/archive.ioplus.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Philips_DigitalDiagnost_C90_camera_on_tube_head.download-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Philips_DigitalDiagnost_C90_camera_on_tube_head.\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Philips has received clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to market the DigitalDiagnost C90, its new digital radiography system.
