Industry ReportsThe Bigger Line Item: What European Public Buyers Actually Commit to Keeping Medical Equipment Running — and Who Wins That WorkAcross eleven years of European contract-award notices, public buyers issued four medical-equipment service awards for every ultrasound-equipment award, and committed more than twice as much money to keeping equipment running as to buying it. And of the service awards that name a winner, a clear majority went to a company with no manufacturer name attached.
Industry ReportsThe Provenance Problem: Why the Replacement Part Is the Riskiest — and Least-Governed — Link in Keeping an Ultrasound Fleet AliveEvery "replacement part" hides six different origins — from new-OEM to counterfeit — and the buyer usually cannot tell which. A field guide to parts provenance: the origin taxonomy, the counterfeit reality, and the incoming-qualification protocol that separates a part you can trust from a part you merely hope about.
Industry ReportsUltrasound Board-Level Failure Patterns: A Symptom-to-Board-to-Root-Cause Field GuideA field guide that turns 16 documented GE-platform board repairs into a symptom-to-board-to-root-cause decode table — with the workforce, right-to-repair, failure-physics, and repair-economics context that makes component-level board repair the rational lever for an aging imaging fleet.
Industry ReportsLife After the End-of-Service LetterA data playbook for the aging, multi-brand ultrasound fleet: an End-of-Service letter ends the manufacturer's support, not the machine's usefulness — and the primary record says the two are often years, even a decade, apart.
Industry ReportsRepair, Replace, or Renew: What the Failure Data Really Says About Ultrasound ProbesThe transducer is the most failure-prone, most expensive-to-replace, and most repairable part of an ultrasound system. The primary FDA, recall and peer-reviewed record shows why a tested repair — not reflex replacement — is usually the right default.
Industry ReportsSafe, Cheaper, Essential: What the Data Really Says About Independent Medical-Device Servicing — and What It Means for UltrasoundAn evidence review of the primary record — FDA, MAUDE, recall and enforcement databases, the UK MHRA, EU procurement, and the right-to-repair debate — for hospital HTM leaders, independent service organizations, and imaging distributors.
