A BAD BAD Hologic Tank Membrane-- spotty with leaky oil.

Is it a Tube? Is it a Tank? It’s the Hologic DEXA Tube/Tank Assembly!

Hologic makes a great Bone Densitometer. As a matter of fact, from their QDR-4500 series introduced in 1995, to their Discovery series, still manufactured today, Hologic has arguably had the most reliable DEXA scanner on the market.

And a lot of that reliability has to do with Hologic’s X-ray Tube and High-Voltage Tank assembly. As the beating heart of the Hologic DEXA, the X-Ray tube is enclosed in an oil-filled tank, which both cools the tube and prolongs its life.

Slimming Down and Seeing Clearer: Better Images with a GE/OEC 9800 Flat Panel LCD Monitor Upgrade

If you are like many GE/OEC users today who have an older 9800 C-Arm, you are probably tired of looking— or perhaps squinting— at those bulky old CRT Monitors. And if your 9800 has been around for a while, it will definitely have some serious “burn-in” by now. In addition, as they age, most older CRT monitors just simply get dimmer and dimmer, lose contrast, and can no longer be adjusted any brighter or clearer.

I got an urgent phone call from one of my practice managers today, and even though I always love to speak to her (she’s one of those incredibly capable, can-do administrators who is worth her weight in gold at a busy Dallas women’s health clinic) my heart sank when she told me what she needed – she had a cracked ultrasound probe. Again. For the second time this quarter. And it would cost her hundreds of dollars in repair and shipping costs – not to mention the patient downtime – to get it fixed.

Physicians, practice managers, clinics, and hospitals are counting down to October 1, 2015, the day that new health care coding requirements go into effect. The new catalog of codes, from the 10th revision of the International Classification of Diseases – or ICD-10, for short – will include 80,000 diagnostic codes, up from the 14,000 codes that are currently used. Originally scheduled for use beginning October 2013, the Obama Administration delayed ICD-10 until October 2014, and then Congress kindly gave healthcare providers another year, until October 2015.

INTRODUCTION:

A customer sent in a GE Achilles portable bone density ultrasonometer to us in bad shape - the machine hadn't been maintained properly, and at some point had been dropped. It was pretty banged up. But these popular peripheral bone densitometers are tough.

After a few hours of TLC, top-notch service, and careful testing, this serviceable road warrior was working perfectly and ready to get back on the road.

Don't Lose that FDA Form!

We get calls every week from past and current customers in a panic over paperwork. A Department of Health inspector has dropped in, and wants to see a copies of the 2579 form for the c-arm and the bone densitometer. A state Department of Revenue auditor is asking who paid the sales tax on the refurbished CT scanner the facility leased three years ago. Or you’ve finally found a serious buyer for the MRI you’re replacing, but before she finalizes the purchase, she wants copies of the software license codes, user passwords, and operator manuals.
