System Support Modules for GE MRI: Cost, Lifespan, Signs of Failure
If your facility uses an MRI scanner, you know by now that there are a number of parts failures that can bring your scanning schedule to a screeching halt. GE's HDx and HDxt systems are no exception. One of these key parts in the HDx series is the SSM, or system support module (part number 2160200-43).
To help prepare you for this possibility (dare we say, eventuality), we're going to share what users can expect from their SSM in terms of lifespan and signs of failure. We'll also share how much it costs right now to replace an SSM when it does fail.
