Philips has introduced a new radiation-free imaging technology called LumiGuide, which uses light reflections to create 3D images of devices within the body. The tool, powered by fiber optic technology, allows surgeons to visualize devices within the body without radiation exposure. It offers real-time 3D device guidance and uses light instead of X-ray to diminish surgical radiation exposure. Philips also faced criticism from the FDA due to deaths associated with its recalled ventilators and sleep apnea machines. The company has taken steps to address the issue and has agreed to stop selling the affected devices in the U.S.
