Portable X-ray systems are incredible valuable to hospitals, urgent care centers, clinics and medical practices for many reasons. 
They’re reliable, durable , long lasting and retain their value. So why would a medical facility consider renting one instead of owning one? Actually, there are several reasons why renting might make more sense. Let’s take a closer look.
Try Before You Buy
The purchasing process for any medical imaging equipment can be daunting and time consuming. And you want to be sure you’re making the right decision. Why not rent the system you think you want to buy, so you can be sure it’s the right one for you? By test driving a portable X-ray system before you buy it, you can make a truly informed decision. And in your own time frame.
Watch Your Pennies
When you purchase medical imaging equipment, it’s usually considered a capital expense. However, if you rent the equipment or even rent to own it, it can be covered as an operational expense, instead of a capital expense. By streamlining the internal decision-making process, you can get the equipment you need much more quickly.
Mechanical Failures
If your X-ray equipment has failed, you need a quick solution so you can continue to care for your patients while your unit is repaired or replaced. A portable X-Ray unit could be the ideal solution! You can usually arrange for one within two weeks. Plus, they are easy to set up and can be ready to use in minutes. Your facility doesn’t need any reconstruction and usually, there are no lead-lined room requirements. (Check with your local and state regulations to be sure, however.)
Easy Peasy
Portable X-ray systems are light, offer quick set up and short use times. They can be used on people of every size and shape. Within minutes of delivery, your portable X-ray system can be up and running!
