Imagpros takes a very hands on approach with shielding and physicist reports. We want to ensure that every Doctor is in compliance with State regulations. As part of our service we will do your shielding plan and register that with the State. This will ensure proper leading requirements for your facility.
We will also fill out the 2579 form and register the equipment on install. Every State has different regulations and our Team of highly trained individuals will ensure that you are compliant. We have very close relationships with local physicists throughout the country.
Every Refurbished system that leaves our facility will be fully tested by a third party physicist group to make sure the system is performing to State Guidelines.
We can also help with full room layout, with drawings for your construction, and with the electrical company to ensure proper setup.
We take regulations very seriously and our Team is ready to help.
Each State has its own Rules and Regulations for X-ray and Fluoroscopy
