Purchasing a new machine is very attractive because it is guaranteed to work faultlessly and efficiently. However, there are cases whereby buying a new machine is out of the question. Buying a refurbished machine is desirable mostly when a person wants to save money as it may cost less than 50% of the price of a new machine thanks to the electronic assembly. This article discusses things that should be considered before deciding to buy a refurbished CT scanner.
There is a maximum amount of radiation that a human body can tolerate without getting a permanent change in its protein segment (DNA). Mostly, unplanned change in DNA sequence is undesirable, especially if the cause is from radiation. X-ray machines and other scanners release small amounts of radiation to be able to scan a human body, the emission is bearable of course. However, older ones may emit more radiation that may put people s lives in danger.
When a patient is in pain, doctors must try by all means to help them in a wink of an eye. A scanner with a slow processing speed will slow down the diagnostic process and produce slightly imprecise readings. So looking at the speed of the machine is an important factor in the decision-making process.
Buying something that you will probably never use is a waste of money as much as buying something that will not give you what you want is. No person wants to spend money buying more things on top of a big machine that was supposed to come with them. So before buying the scanner, check if it provides the services that you will need and if you can buy a cheaper one that does not come with unnecessary extras.
It is known that purchasing an old machine is cheaper than buying an old one, but other costs should be considered on top of purchasing costs. These costs include maintenance and repair costs. Will a refurbished machine still be the cheaper option after considering the extra costs coming with it? This is something you have to find out before making the final decision.
It is advisable to purchase one that is still under warranty. If the warranty has already expired, check which services will be available and how much they will cost. Given the duration of the warranty and/or the cost of extra services you will be in a better state to make comparisons and buy the most suitable machine.
One last factor to consider is the availability of repairing parts. Are they available in your country or will you be forced to make purchases from offshore countries which will take longer to arrive? Being able to buy them locally is an advantage because in terms of emergencies the machine won t be idle for a long time while waiting for parts to be delivered from overseas.
You will be at a better state to make an informed decision on whether to buy a refurbished or new scanner after considering all these factors. The balance between machine performance and its costs.
