An OmniSphere software application that enables remote diagnostics and control of Philips ultrasound systems
Performance improvement
Ultrasound Remote Technical Connect
Connectivity for high productivity
Today’s dynamic healthcare environment means growing productivity challenges, and the ability to quickly locate, diagnose and address maintenance problems is an essential part of operational efficiency. We understand that you have invested in a biomed team to meet these challenges, and we are here to support them.
The Philips OmniSphere Remote Technical Connect software application allows your own technicians to identify and solve maintenance issues on their Philips ultrasound systems* from a remote location. Your IT or biomedical team can troubleshoot issues and run system diagnostics throughout your network without having to travel to the location. This powerful tool can expedite your support workflow and allow you to maintain control over your data

Your service, your way
Remote Technical Connect is designed to help internal IT or biomed teams to be self-sufficient, starting with a fast, simple installation.

Why choose Remote Technical Connect?
Until now, members of the IT department were required to drive to the practice’s 10 different offices, which are spread geographically throughout the state... significant amounts of time have been spent traveling to each office to complete IT work on the ultrasound systems.”
