Rent a Canon Mobile CT Scanner from Atlas Medical

Why Rent a Canon Mobile CT Scanner?


Formerly known under the Toshiba umbrella, Canon Medical Systems brings a distinct heritage of robust imaging and engineering excellence to its Mobile CT Scanners. If your priority is fast throughput without sacrificing diagnostic precision, Canon ticks both boxes.


The Aquilion family—spanning PRIME, One, and Lightning variations—emphasizes speed, reconstruction capability, and dose efficiency. For instance, the Lightning models aim for swift scans and simpler operation, ideal for mobile setups cycling through multiple patients per day. Meanwhile, the One or PRIME tiers cater to specialized procedures, such as perfusion imaging or multi-phase studies, ensuring even complex cases can be handled on the go.


In a mobile environment, reliability is key. Canon’s engineering typically includes fail-safes and easy service access, meaning you’re less likely to be stymied by downtime in the midst of a busy schedule. Of course, to get the most out of advanced features like multi-energy or advanced cardiac workflows, double-check your power supply and trailer climate control. High-end configurations thrive best when you meet their operational specs.

In today's fast-paced healthcare landscape, the demand for accessible and efficient imaging solutions is more critical than ever. Welcome to your ultimate guide to mobile PET/CT rental services, where convenience meets cutting-edge technology. These services allow medical facilities to enhance patient care without the burden of expensive equipment purchases. Imagine having a state-of-the-art imaging solution at your doorstep, ready to deliver accurate diagnostics whenever and wherever needed. This guide will explore the benefits, logistics, and considerations of mobile PET/CT rentals, empowering healthcare professionals to optimize their services while maintaining high standards of care. Ready to unlock a new level of convenience in medical imaging? Let’s dive in! Understanding PET/CT Technology PET/CT technology, a fusion of Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Computed Tomography (CT), stands at the forefront of medical imaging diagnostics. PET scans use radioactive tracers to visualize metabolic processes in the body, providing invaluable insights into the functionality of tissues and organs. CT scans, on the other hand, use X-rays to create detailed cross-sectional images of the body's internal structures. When combined, PET/CT imaging delivers comprehensive data, elucidating both anatomical and metabolic information, which is essential for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. The integration of PET and CT technologies allows for the detection of abnormalities at a molecular level, often before structural changes become apparent. This early detection capability is crucial in oncology, cardiology, and neurology, where timely intervention can significantly alter patient outcomes. For instance, in cancer care, PET/CT can identify malignant tumors, monitor the effectiveness of therapies, and detect recurrences with remarkable precision. This dual-modality imaging not only enhances diagnostic accuracy but also minimizes the need for multiple scans, reducing patient exposure to radiation and streamlining the diagnostic process. Furthermore, advancements in PET/CT technology have led to the development of more sophisticated scanners with improved resolution and faster imaging times. Innovations such as time-of-flight (TOF) PET and digital PET have further enhanced image quality and diagnostic confidence. These technological strides underscore the importance of PET/CT in modern medicine, making it an indispensable tool for healthcare providers aiming to deliver top-tier patient care.

Why Cost Transparency Matters When your fixed cath room closes for renovation, you face two options: purchase a second lab outright or rent a fully equipped Philips mobile unit for the downtime. Understanding the real dollars attached to each choice helps stakeholders approve budgets quickly and keep patient care uninterrupted. Up-Front Capital vs. Short-Term Cash Flow Buying a Second Lab Capital purchase price: $2.5 M–$3.5 M for a Philips Azurion suite, depending on detector size and options. Construction costs: $500 K–$1 M for shielded walls, HVAC, and electrical upgrades. Depreciation schedule: Capitalised over 7–10 years; ties up future budgets. Renting a Mobile Philips Cath Lab Monthly rental rate all inclusive of trailer (or modular), Philips Azurion (or Allura FD20), Medrad Injector, Hemodynamics, IVUS, service coverage, apps training, insurance etc. No long-term asset: Expense hits operating budget only for the renovation window. Hidden Costs to Factor In Staff retraining: Zero for a Philips rental if your fixed rooms are already Philips; minimal if your team is Siemens or GE. Service contracts: Mobile rental includes 24/7 coverage; a purchased lab requires a $150 K–$200 K annual service plan. IT integration: Trailer ties into existing PACS and EMR—no new interface fees. Insurance: Rental unit typically folds into your existing equipment rider at no additional premium. When Buying Still Makes Sense Renovation exceeds 24 months and the hospital plans to expand cath capacity permanently. The facility lacks space to park or power a trailer. Capital funds are abundant while operating budgets are restricted. Key Takeaways Rentals shine for short-term projects where cash conservation and speed to patient care are critical. A Philips mobile lab delivers identical workflow to your fixed Azurion or Allura rooms, preserving clinical quality without a seven-figure capital outlay. Transparent, all-in pricing lets finance teams plug numbers straight into the project budget—no hidden fees or post-install surprises. Get a Precise Quote for Your Renovation Window Scroll down to the Contact Us form and provide us with your planned renovation start and end dates and current imaging platform (Philips, Siemens, or GE) and model (Azurion, Allura, Artis Zee, etc). Within one business day we’ll have a specialist reach out to you to further discuss your project. No, we’re not changing the world. But we help the healthcare providers that are.

Why These Approvals Matter Even though your Philips mobile cath lab is fully built and CE marked, most state Departments of Health (DOH) or Public Health (DPH) still require a formal review before first patient use. Skipping the paperwork can invalidate reimbursement, delay construction schedules, and expose the hospital to penalties. Who Regulates Mobile Cath Labs? State DOH / DPH – reviews radiation shielding, infection-control, and clinical-services scope. Radiation-Control Bureau (in many states) – evaluates lead equivalency and physics testing. Local building & fire departments – verify electrical, structural, and egress safety. Facility accreditation bodies (TJC, DNV, AAAHC) – may ask for the approval letter during survey. Five-Step Roadmap to Fast Approval Pre-application call Contact your state DOH inspector and confirm which forms apply to a temporary mobile cath lab. Ask for typical review timelines; many states will fast-track if patient services would otherwise stop. Gather core documents Philips manufacturer’s spec sheet (shows IEC 60601 compliance). Trailer floor plan with lead-wall notation. Radiation safety officer (RSO) letter and shielding design outline. Service-agreement copy (proves 24/7 support). Submit the application Include a cover letter explaining renovation context and patient-safety benefits. Pay the one-time mobile-unit fee (ranges $200–$1,500). On-site inspection The state inspector will verify power, egress paths, and shielding integrity. Have the physicist’s acceptance-test results ready. Receive written authorization File the approval letter with Radiology, Cardiology, and Compliance teams. Post the permit inside the trailer as many states require it visible to staff. Documentation Checklist (What States Most Often Request) Philips trailer floor plan Lead-shielding report (signed by a licensed medical physicist) Equipment invoice or ownership letter (shows it is a rental, not a donation) Infection-Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) sign-off Emergency-power statement (generator tie-in) Written policies for crash-cart access, waste disposal, and patient transfer Proven Tips to Speed Approval Submit photos of the pad, ramp, and door swing with the application—many inspectors will waive pre-inspection if visuals are clear. Highlight the positive-pressure HEPA system; infection-control teams often fast-track when they see it. Schedule the state inspector two weeks before delivery; if the unit arrives early, you only need a brief walk-through to close the file. Keep your RSO in the email loop—some states send questions directly to them rather than to Facilities. Need More Guidance? Scroll down to the Contact Us form below.
