Your Guide to Medical Imaging Equipment

Are you looking for a general purpose nuclear camera? One with modern software, reliable detectors, and ready parts availability? Do you have a standing relationship with a Philips-savvy service engineer? To that end, we submit the Philips Brightview for your consideration.

The factors we just mentioned are all good reasons for camera buyers to look into a Brightview, and they're not the only advantages you'll find on its spec sheet, but on top of that the model presents a solid value for Philips-heavy facilities because of the unique moment in which we find the camera market.

When the time comes to upgrade your nuclear camera (or to purchase your first), it's not uncommon to experience a little "sticker shock" or to get several quotes for comparison's sake. While you're getting your quotes, we suggest getting at least one from a provider of used or refurbished systems. There are quality systems to be found and substantial savings to be had.

To get an idea of what those savings might look like, watch the video or read the list below to see cost information for nuclear cameras for all applications.

When you're looking for a PET scanner, the computers and software are, in many ways, just as important as the scanner itself. Scintron and CVIT are two PET workstation suites you're likely to hear about on the market. The two products certainly have some things in common, but there are big differences as well as areas where each shines.

Keep reading to see how these two workstation suites measure up in terms of functionality, scanning speed, manufacturer compatibility,  and cost.

So - whether your medical imaging team is upgrading its equipment, shifting the focus of its services, or (sadly) moving on to other endeavors altogether, the time has come for you to sell your nuclear camera. Now, since selling a nuclear camera isn't something most people do every day, you're wondering what it looks like to get one of these things out of your building. Frankly, because every building comes with its own unique features and challenges, we're wondering the same thing. This is precisely why before every removal, we conduct a thorough inspection of your site and your system.

To help you anticipate what will be going on before and during your nuclear camera's fond farewell, we've outlined how we handle nuclear camera inspection and removal below.

Starting this summer, all Joint Commission-accredited organizations that provide services in CT, nuclear medicine, PET, and MRI will be subject to new standards. The first of these standards will go into effect on July 1st and others will roll out gradually throughout the remainder of the year and on into 2015.
