Cardiovascular/Interventional Radiology X-ray 2008

 
August 28, 2008

As providers consider investing precious resources in x-ray equipment for cath labs and angiography suites, a number of questions are raised. Instead of purchasing separate equipment for a dedicated cath lab or IR room, can we purchase a multipurpose suite and be clinically effective for both Cardiovascular (CV) and Interventional (IR) in the same room? Can investment in this technology expand our business? With only a few vendors in this market, what are the upsides and downsides of our choices?

KLAS interviewed 90 healthcare professionals about the experiences they are having with their CV/IR x-ray equipment and vendors. The products included in this research were selected by KLAS provider partners due to the multi-role nature of the equipment in that these scanners can be used as either a cath lab, angiography suite, or in a number of other subspecialties.

Products qualifying for ranking in the study were:

  • GE Innova 3100
  • Philips Allura Xper FD20
  • Siemens Artis zee Angio

Early findings were also included for Toshiba Infinix-i Vascular.
