If your hospital, clinic, practice or healthcare
facility has a CT Scanner on site, you might
wonder why it might be a good idea for you to
rent a Mobile CT Scanner. Actually, there are
several situations that make renting a Mobile CT
Scanner a great idea. What happens if your
current CT Scanner needs repair or replacement?
What if your volume of patients exponentially
increases and you cant keep up with demand? What
if you need to upgrade your current CT Suite?
What if you want to test your market to see if
its wise to add CT Scanning services to your
facility? These are situations that justify
renting a Mobile CT Scanner.

Creating a New CT Suite
A Mobile CT scanner could be a great solution for
you if you need to build a new CT Suite. After
all, construction costs have skyrocketed over the
past few years, not to mention supply chain
setbacks and the rising costs of materials. By
renting a Mobile CT Scanner, you can provide the
scanning services you need without having to
invest in the construction of a permanent CT
Suite.
Servicing Multiple Locations
Do you have multiple locations? It often doesnt
make financial sense to build a CT Suite in each
facility. Instead, you can rent a Mobile CT
Scanner that travels between each facility on a
weekly, bimonthly or monthly schedule

Increased Demand
If your current CT Suite isnt able to keep up
with patient backlog, a rental CT Scanner could
help patients get the scans they need in a timely
manner.
Testing Your Market
If youre not sure if your community can support
a new CT operation, why not rent a Mobile CT
Scanner and see if you get the referrals that
will warrant the construction of a new suite? It
gives you a chance to test the waters without a
huge investment.

What Does A Mobile CT Scanner Cost?
The cost of renting a Mobile CT Scanner depends
on several factors, including the make and model
of the unit, the slice count of the CT in your
trailer and the length of time you want to rent
the Mobile CT Scanner. As a rule, if you rent the
scanner for at least a year, youll get a
discount. Additional costs for renting a Mobile
CT Scanner include a security deposit,
transportation to your facility, and set-up by a
CT Engineer that will work with your IT
department in order to set up the PACS network
connection.

If you cant afford to install a new CT at your
facility or you are experiencing disruptions with
your current CT suite, renting a Mobile CT
Scanner makes sense. However, if you require a
long-term solution, you might consider leasing a
Mobile CT Scanner instead of renting one
