Mr. Vice President I know that the hospital has been trying to increase services by investing in new quality equipment for the radiology department. I would personally recommend that the hospital invest in General Electric Healthcare Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanners. Furthermore, I completely understand that making such decisions require taking numerous factors into consideration, for instance, the price of the new equipment and the expected profit that the equipment will likely bring to this hospital. MRI scanners are an invaluable piece of equipment needed in the radiology department due to the fact that it is top quality as well as an ideal investment for this hospital. Even though the scanners call for substantial spending the scanners have greater possibility for the return on investment.
MRI scanners are a unproblematic diagnostic practice that permits physicians to see comprehensive images of the internal edifices of your body without utilizing X-rays (Huettel, Song & McCarthy, 2005). This particular piece of equipment is important because it clearly illustrates the differentiation amongst diseased and healthy tissue. In addition, it allows physicians to gather vital information about a patient’s spine, brain, internal organs as well as joints. Initial treatment and revealing of disease, has no known side effects; thus, physicians will enhance the ability to decide the most suitable treatment for patients (Foltz & Jaffray, 2012). General Electric Healthcare is future focused and patient centered because it offers extraordinary results in addition to an all-inclusive array of products to address the imaging needs of the hospital’s radiology department.
Moreover, without compromising capabilities or quality the Optima MR450w 1.5T with GEM Suite by General Electric Healthcare offers comfort for the hospital’s patients. Most importantly, it fuses the
