Amerinet awards remanufactured equipment contract to MECS

A new, three-year contract grants Amerinet Inc. members access to MECS Inc.'s range of remanufactured diagnostic imaging systems.

The two companies recently inked an agreement to allow individual facilities and integrated delivery networks access to the MECS line of remanufactured mobile x-ray, C-arms, R&F systems, mammography, and CT scanners. It also provides an asset management component for the remanufacture and upgrade of existing mobile x-ray, C-arm systems, and CTs for redeployment within individual organizations.

A total of 16 cardiology practices from 12 states settled with the DOJ to resolve allegations they overbilled Medicare for imaging agents used to diagnose cardiovascular disease. 

CCTA is being utilized more and more for the diagnosis and management of suspected coronary artery disease. An international group of specialists shared their perspective on this ongoing trend.

The new technology shows early potential to make a significant impact on imaging workflows and patient care.
