So, its almost time for your new medical imaging
equipment to arrive. Whether youre getting ready
to install a CT Scanner, MRI, Cath Lab or other
imaging system, its wise to plan ahead. The
experts at Atlantis Worldwide put together this
list of things to do in order to help make the
process as hassle free as possible.

• Set up your PACS Network in advance. Your
  in-house IT staff will be able to provide all the
  information required for this. The network should
  be ready to connect to your new medical imaging
  device before it arrives, so your installers
  wont have to wait around to install it.

• Make sure your installer, engineers and project
  manager all know who the person in charge is on
  the project. By having one point person, youll
  prevent confusion and misinformation.
• Find out what your installer will need from you
  at the onset of the project. There will be lots
  of details to take care of before the
  installation.
• Hire qualified contractors. Choose a contractor
  who is experienced in building hospitals or
  imaging centers. This kind of project requires
  special knowledge and experience. Dont use a
  general contractor with no experience.

• Fulfill your end of the bargain. If you purchased
  installation along with your equipment, you have
  responsibilities to fulfill. Read your contract
  thoroughly to determine which tasks are yours to
  complete and which tasks belong to your
  contractor. If the language is confusing, ask for
  clarification.
• Ask questions. Leave nothing to chance. This
  project will involve a lot of experts and moving
  parts. Make sure everyone is onboard with
  scheduling, responsibilities and deadlines. Be
  sure to exchange information via email at all
  times, so you have written documentation.
