SkyFlow

Scatter correction algorithm
Philips SkyFlow reduces the effect of scattered radiation for non-grid bedside chest exams, allowing you to obtain DR images with grid-like contrast while avoiding the time and effort of attaching and detaching a grid.

Features
Enjoy fast, smooth gridless workflow
While you must always decide whether or not to use a grid, now you can combine the ease of a gridless acquisition workflow with the contrast of a grid image, for portable chest exams. SkyFlow, our intelligent X-ray image processing software, produces images with grid-like contrast without a grid by reducing the effect of scattered radiation during non-grid bedside chest exams.
Simple automatic operation for immediate results
SkyFlow X-ray image processing requires no operator input and automatically adjusts contrast enhancement based on the amount of scatter for the individual patient. Therefore, it is suitable for a wide range of patient types, particularly for bariatric patients.
Gridless workflow saves you time
SkyFlow identifies scatter signal and automatically applies correction immediately at the bedside. You can review quality images and make decisions on the spot; just as mobile radiography demands. Additionally, by eliminating the grid, you eliminate retakes caused by grid misalignment.
