Dont rush in Its tempting to jump at the
opportunity to rent a C-arm, especially since
rental situations seem to present themselves on
short notice. But dont! Give yourself time to
talk to a C-Arm provider as soon as you decide
renting is the best solution for your facility.
The more lead time you have before you commit,
the fewer disruptions youll experience and you
wont be facing rush fees for expedited shipping.
The sooner you start a conversation with your
C-Arm provider, the better your options will be
for shipping within your budget.

What type of image intensifier will you
need? Which size youll need is dependent upon
which type of studies youll be performing. The
most common sizes are 9 and 12. If you have
experience with C-Arms, youll probably know
which size youll need, but if youre new to
C-Arms, your provider should be able to help you
determine the right size for you.

Ask about accessories When working with C-Arms,
youll need accessories like lead aprons, sterile
drapes, printers and DICOM storage devices. Its
important to ask if these are included with your
C-Arm rental or if you need to rent or purchase
these. Ask about warranties and service
coverage Dont assume that your C-Arm comes with
a warranty or service coverage. Some providers do
provide field service with their C-Arm rentals
and others do not. Youll want to make sure you
understand what the service terms are with the
C-Arm youre thinking about renting.

Ask about shipping If youre going to ship a
C-Arm the best and safest method is having it
packed by professionals. Costs are determined by
the size and weight of your C-Arm, but as a rule
of thumb, it will and take 1-2 weeks. If you need
it in 3-5 days, expect to pay more. Be sure to
ask your vendor about shipping costs and if they
are included in the cost of your C-Arm.
