Sensible Solutions for Refurbished Radiology

There’s a huge demand for bone densitometer (DEXA) scanning, thanks to the millions who have osteoporosis.  With approximately one in three women over the age of 50 fracturing a bone because of osteoporosis, a bone densitometer can be useful in a clinic, hospital, practice or healthcare facility.

Lets face it.  CT Scanners aren’t cheap.  And x-ray tubes are a big part of the expense.  So it’s wise to get every single bit out of your x-ray tube before you replace one.  However, how you know when to change it can be confusing, because different manufacturers have different ways of measuring it.  Here are a few tips to make it easier for you to know when to hang on to a tube and when to replace it.

These two 1.5T MRI models have a lot in common which can make a decision a bit more complicated.  So how do you choose what option will fit your needs?

Well, the computed radiology legislation took effect last year, forcing most diagnostic clinics, facilities and department to phase out old CR equipment and replace them with digital solutions. There’s nothing quite like a reduction in Medicare reimbursement to get things moving, right? 

As an MRI provider, you have to stay on top of a lot of moving parts—literally and figuratively.  At Atlantis Worldwide, we understand and thought we’d provide a global overview of an MRI cold head.  As you know, a cold head re-condenses the helium gas within the MRI cooling system to liquid, to prevent it from burning off entirely.

Sometimes it’s hard to keep up with all the new technology, issues and changes in medical imaging. At Atlantis Worldwide, wethought we’d make it a little easier for you. We gathered up our most interesting articles about medical imaging during the past year. They were shared on news and medical sites, on LinkedIn and even Facebook. We got lots of positive and interesting feedback and comments from trusted friends and professionals.

At Atlantis Worldwide, we know there are a lot of questions about the medical device excise tax that’s scheduled to go into back into effect on January 1, 2018.

There’s a lot of excitement in the medical imaging world, thanks to new AIR Coil technology. Why?  It radically improves the patient experience, as well as provides better quality images. 

Mention the term AI in a room filled with radiologists and you’ll probably hear a comment like, “AI is going to make us obsolete” but don't fear,  according to radiologist and informatics expert

Technology is sure moving at the speed of WOW, these days.  Every time you read the news, there’s a new device, technology or OS that will make life easier, better and faster than before.  The medical imaging arena is no different, from 3D modeling and 4D imaging to new non-invasive technology. Science fiction is indeed coming to life right before our eyes!
