ROS Helps a Growing Community Hospital Transition to a Larger Facilty
ROS is very pleased to announce the recent sale and installation of a medical linear accelerator system to a community hospital located in Redlands, CA. The hospital is currently in the process of constructing a new facility and had asked ROS for assistance during the transition period. Rather than continue to use an older machine, the hospital decided to install a top-of-the-line machine that would last until the new facility’s construction is completed. They needed something reliable that fit their specific limitations, budget, and needs .
In order to minimize installation difficulties and avoid potential vault modifications, the hospital decided to replace its older Siemens Primus Linear Accelerator with a newer, more updated model, a Siemens Artiste. The Artiste includes capabilities such as CBCT, 160 leaf MLC, an STX couch, and other treatment upgrades.
ROS is one of the world’s leading providers of refurbished linear accelerators, CT scanners, MRI systems and PET/CT scanners. ROS has helped hospitals, clinics and universities around the globe acquire and operate cost-effective equipment.
