6 Benefits of Upgrading: Save Time and Money with Modern MRI & CT Scanners
Posted on
Outdated MRI and CT scanners aren’t just inconvenient, they can be a financial and operational burden. At PrizMED, we understand that imaging equipment isn’t just about the machine itself;, it’s about reliability, serviceability, and long-term value. That’s why we specialize in high-quality refurbished systems that deliver the performance you need while maximizing cost savings.
Upgrading isn’t about chasing the latest flashy technology, it’s about reducing downtime, improving efficiency, and ensuring dependable service. Here’s how a professionally managed upgrade and service can benefit your practice.
1. Reduce Downtime with Reliable Equipment
Problem: Aging systems lead to frequent breakdowns, canceled appointments, and lost revenue.
Solution: Our rigorously inspected and serviced MRI and CT scanners are chosen to avoid end-of-life issues. With expert installation and ongoing support, your equipment stays operational longer, allowing you to maintain a steady patient schedule without unexpected disruptions.
2. Faster Scanning Means More Patients Seen
Problem: Older systems may slow down patient throughput due to longer scan and processing times.
Solution: While upgrading doesn’t always mean the absolute latest technology, it does mean moving to a more efficient and reliable system. A 64-slice CT scanner, for example, processes images significantly faster than an outdated 16-slice model. With our dependable refurbished systems, you get speed and efficiency without the high price tag of brand-new equipment.
3. Lower Maintenance Costs and Predictable Service Plans
Problem: Frequent repairs and unexpected part failures drive up maintenance costs.
Solution: Instead of relying on outdated equipment with unpredictable failures, our systems come with service plans and remote monitoring options that help catch issues before they become costly problems. With expert support, you minimize surprise expenses and keep operations running smoothly.
4. Minimize Operational Costs with Expertly Maintained Systems
Problem: Imaging equipment consumes a lot of power, and older models may be less efficient.
Solution: While power savings between older and newer models are often marginal, the real cost savings come from reducing downtime and extending system longevity. With a professionally managed service plan, your scanner operates at peak efficiency without unexpected costs eating into your budget.
5. Enhance Patient Experience with Comfort-Focused Design
Problem: Long scan times and outdated ergonomics can create a frustrating patient experience.
Solution: Many of the scanners we provide offer wide-bore options for increased patient comfort, especially important for larger patients or those with claustrophobia. Additionally, improved table ergonomics and faster scan times contribute to a smoother experience, helping to increase patient satisfaction and retention.
6. Expand Your Imaging Capabilities
Problem: Outdated scanners may limit the types of scans you can offer, driving patients elsewhere.
Solution: Upgrading to a newer refurbished system means gaining access to more advanced imaging capabilities without breaking the bank. Whether it’s a higher-slice CT scanner for faster scans or an MRI system with more powerful software options, a strategic upgrade can open new revenue streams for your practice.
