The systems I sell, and why

These are the kinds of systems I sell through Patterson. I picked the partner I trust most in each category, after 16 years of working on many different scanners. There are a lot of other systems out there, and some of them are very good. You will find them all in Compare CTs, scored the same way as mine.

There are many more scanners on the market than the ones I sell. Compare CTs shows them all side by side, with the same scores and tradeoffs.

Why these systems

Service decides it. Patterson supplies your hospital with pharmaceuticals and supplies every week. If a scanner I sold you goes down and nobody shows up to fix it, we lose a lot more than a CT sale. So I only sell systems whose service I will put my name on.

That means some scanners with very good images are not on this page. I still score them in Compare CTs, because you should see the whole field before you decide.

The refurbished multidetector CT, MRI and C-arm systems I sell come through Block Imaging, my partner for refurbished equipment.

Three kinds of CT

The same patient can be scanned on very different machines. What separates them is detail, speed, how well they handle soft tissue, how big a patient fits, and how much room and power they need.

This page covers what I sell. It is not everything available. The full field, including systems I do not sell, is in Compare CTs.

Comparisons may include systems Patterson does not sell. Model examples and imagery are illustrative; verify the exact system and current source documentation.
