Diagnostic imaging equipment includes technologies that help physicians visualize structures, functions, or changes inside the body through medical images. Depending on the operating principle, hospitals may use X-ray systems, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, angiography, nuclear medicine, or other specialized imaging technologies.
Equipment selection should not be based solely on image resolution, number of CT slices, magnetic field strength, or purchase price. Hospitals also need to assess clinical needs, patient volume, room conditions, radiation safety, operating personnel, PACS connectivity, maintenance costs, and long-term spare part availability.
A high-specification system that does not match actual utilization needs may increase investment costs without delivering corresponding value. Conversely, an under-specified system may quickly become a bottleneck as examination volume and the range of clinical procedures increase.
Quick Summary
- Diagnostic imaging equipment includes technologies that use ionizing radiation, technologies that do not use ionizing radiation, and hybrid imaging systems.
- X-ray, CT, angiography, and some nuclear medicine systems require radiation control, while ultrasound and MRI operate on different principles.
- Hospitals should select equipment based on clinical needs, capacity, and workflow rather than starting with a specific model.
- Image quality is only part of the decision; infrastructure, staffing, data management, maintenance, and lifecycle costs must also be evaluated.
- DICOM support and PACS integration should be verified in the actual configuration rather than relying only on a statement that the device “supports connectivity.”
- Investment plans should include installation, training, testing, maintenance, spare parts, and contingency arrangements for equipment downtime.
What Is Diagnostic Imaging Equipment?
Diagnostic imaging equipment refers to systems that generate images or imaging data to support examination, monitoring, diagnostic decision-making, intervention planning, and treatment assessment.
WHO describes medical imaging as encompassing a range of modalities using ionizing radiation, non-ionizing radiation, and hybrid imaging technologies. Common categories include conventional radiography, fluoroscopy, angiography, CT, ultrasound, MRI, mammography, bone densitometry, dental imaging, nuclear medicine, PET, PET-CT, SPECT, and image-guided interventional procedures.
In a hospital, a diagnostic imaging system often includes more than the image acquisition device itself. A complete solution may include:
- Image acquisition equipment.
- Probes, detectors, or signal-receiving components.
- Operator workstation.
- Processing and reporting workstation.
- Diagnostic-grade monitors.
- Image processing software.
- PACS.
- Connectivity with RIS, HIS, or EMR.
- Servers and storage systems.
- Printing or data export devices.
- Contrast injectors where applicable.
- Quality control equipment.
- Patient positioning and support accessories.
- Appropriate electrical, cooling, and safety infrastructure.
Hospitals should therefore evaluate the entire operating ecosystem when purchasing diagnostic imaging equipment rather than focusing only on the main device.
Overview of Common Diagnostic Imaging Technologies
Each imaging modality has its own operating principle, advantages, limitations, and implementation requirements. No single technology is suitable for every clinical purpose.
| Technology | General Principle | Operational Characteristics | Key Implementation Requirements |
|---|---|---|---|
| X-ray | Uses X-rays to create images | Fast image acquisition and widely used | Imaging room, shielding, radiation control, detector, and image processing system |
| CT | Uses X-rays and computer processing to generate cross-sectional images | High speed, large data volumes, complex configurations | Power, cooling, imaging room, radiation control, contrast media, and storage |
| MRI | Uses a strong magnetic field and radiofrequency waves | Strong soft-tissue imaging capabilities without X-rays | MRI suite, control of metallic materials, cooling, MRI safety, and adequate space |
| Ultrasound | Uses high-frequency sound waves | Flexible, potentially mobile, and operator-dependent | Probes, software, training, and cleaning procedures |
| Angiography | Produces images of blood vessels, typically using X-rays | Combines diagnostic and interventional functions | Interventional suite, radiation safety, aseptic conditions, and specialist staff |
| Nuclear medicine | Detects radiation emitted from radiopharmaceuticals | Provides functional and metabolic information | Radiopharmaceutical management, radiation safety, and specialized infrastructure |
| PET-CT, SPECT-CT | Combines functional data with anatomical imaging | Produces multimodality data | Investment cost, radiopharmaceuticals, staffing, and complex operations |
| Mammography | Specialized X-ray imaging of the breast | Requires stringent image quality control | Dedicated equipment, detectors, positioning, and dose control |
| Bone densitometry | Commonly uses dual-energy X-rays | Fast procedure with a specialized scope of use | Quality control, calibration, and installation location |
This table provides only a high-level comparison. The appropriate technology for a specific procedure should still be determined by the healthcare facility based on its scope of practice, patient population, and relevant guidance.
Digital X-ray: A Common Foundation of Diagnostic Imaging Departments
X-ray is one of the most widely used imaging technologies in hospitals. Depending on its needs, a healthcare facility may invest in:
- Fixed X-ray systems.
- Mobile X-ray systems.
- Direct digital radiography systems.
- Computed radiography systems.
- Dental X-ray systems.
- Specialized X-ray systems.
- C-arm systems for surgery or intervention.
- Fluoroscopy systems.
When evaluating an X-ray system, hospitals should not compare generator power alone. Other factors include:
- Detector type.
- Acquisition area.
- Resolution.
- Image processing capability.
- Image display time.
- Tube movement range.
- Positioning capability.
- Examination table and wall stand.
- Dose management software, where available.
- Worklist connectivity.
- Ability to send images to PACS.
- Backup arrangements if the detector fails.
For mobile X-ray systems, additional factors include device weight, maneuverability, battery life, turning radius, suitability for confined spaces, and infection control procedures.
CT: Speed, Slice Count, and Actual Capacity Requirements
Computed tomography systems use X-rays combined with computer processing to generate cross-sectional images. In procurement, the number of slices often receives considerable attention, but it should not be the only criterion.
The operational capability of a CT system also depends on:
- Rotation speed.
- Detector width.
- Scan range.
- Reconstruction time.
- Quality of reconstruction algorithms.
- Noise reduction capability.
- Dose management features.
- X-ray tube power.
- Cooling capability.
- Expected case volume.
- Types of procedures to be performed.
- Post-processing workstation.
- Data volume.
- Contrast injection arrangements.
- PACS and RIS synchronization.
A system with a higher slice count is not necessarily more suitable if the hospital does not plan to perform the corresponding procedures or lacks the personnel to use the capability effectively.
Conversely, for hospitals with high case volumes, complex procedures, or a need for shorter scan times, an under-specified system may limit capacity and extend processing times.
Before selecting a system, hospitals should estimate:
- Average and peak case volumes.
- Proportion of cases requiring contrast media.
- Time between patients.
- Post-processing time.
- Daily data volume.
- Long-term storage requirements.
- Backup arrangements when the system is unavailable.
MRI: Magnetic Field Strength Is Only Part of the Decision
MRI uses magnetic fields and radiofrequency waves to generate images and does not use X-rays. The technology is often valued for its ability to provide detailed soft-tissue information, but it also involves specific implementation and safety management requirements.
When evaluating an MRI system, hospitals commonly consider:
- Magnetic field strength.
- Bore diameter.
- Bore length.
- Gradient performance.
- Number of channels.
- Coil portfolio.
- Acquisition speed.
- Pulse sequences.
- Reconstruction algorithms.
- Image quality.
- Motion artifact reduction.
- Post-processing workstation.
- Cooling system.
- Helium consumption where applicable.
- Power requirements.
- Room area.
- Floor load.
- Noise level.
- Magnetic field zone control requirements.
Higher magnetic field strength may provide certain technical advantages, but it can also increase investment costs, infrastructure requirements, and operational complexity.
Facilities should assess the system against the procedures they intend to perform rather than automatically assuming that the highest available specification is the best option.
MRI Safety Should Be Built into the Design from the Beginning
MRI does not use ionizing radiation, but it still involves specific risks related to strong magnetic fields, metallic materials, implants, projectile hazards, and other operating conditions.
Hospitals should establish:
- Controlled zones.
- Patient screening procedures.
- Staff and visitor control procedures.
- Lists of items permitted in the MRI room.
- Signage and access control.
- Emergency response procedures.
- Safety training for relevant personnel.
- Procedures for transporting patients using supporting devices.
- Controls for anesthesia or monitoring equipment used in the MRI environment.
These measures should be prepared before the system enters operation rather than relying only on supplier handover training.
Ultrasound: Flexibility with Strong Operator Dependence
Ultrasound uses sound waves to generate images. It has a wide range of applications, including general imaging, cardiology, obstetrics, musculoskeletal imaging, interventions, and other specialized uses.
An ultrasound system is commonly evaluated based on:
- Image quality.
- Probe types.
- Frequency range.
- Number of probe ports.
- Doppler modes.
- Measurement packages.
- Specialty software.
- Image and video storage capability.
- Monitor size.
- Console adjustability.
- Start-up time.
- Battery life for portable systems.
- Connectivity.
- Probe cleaning procedures.
- Probe repair and replacement services.
Ultrasound image quality depends on more than the machine itself. Operator experience, probe positioning, parameter settings, patient characteristics, and examination conditions can all affect the result.
When conducting trials or demonstrations, hospitals should therefore use a standardized evaluation scenario. Conclusions should not be based solely on a single image optimized by the supplier's application specialist.
Probes Are an Important Part of Lifecycle Cost
Probes can be high-value components and may be damaged by:
- Impact.
- Dropping.
- Cable bending.
- Improper cleaning.
- Inappropriate chemicals.
- Improper storage.
- Normal wear during use.
When evaluating suppliers, hospitals should clarify:
- Probe warranty period.
- Warranty exclusions.
- Replacement price.
- Repair availability.
- Supply lead time.
- Backup probe availability.
- Inspection procedures.
- Cleaning and disinfection instructions.
Angiography and Interventional Imaging: The Device Is Only One Part of the System
Angiography and interventional imaging systems operate in environments where imaging, procedures, patient monitoring, and infection control must work together.
Investment planning should assess:
- Imaging system configuration.
- Positioning capability.
- Dynamic image quality.
- Frame rate.
- Processing tools.
- Dose reduction support.
- Procedure table.
- Monitor suspension system.
- Injector.
- Patient monitoring equipment.
- Anesthesia or resuscitation support.
- Aseptic controls.
- Backup power.
- Storage systems.
- Workspace.
- Radiation protection for staff.
These projects require early involvement from specialists, biomedical engineers, medical physicists, nurses, infection control teams, information technology staff, and infrastructure teams.
If the hospital purchases only the primary imaging system without designing the entire interventional workflow, it may encounter difficulties when bringing the system into operation.
Nuclear Medicine and Hybrid Imaging Technologies
Gamma cameras, SPECT, PET, PET-CT, and other hybrid imaging modalities provide information about function, metabolism, or the distribution of radiopharmaceuticals.
Unlike some conventional imaging systems, nuclear medicine projects also depend on:
- Radiopharmaceutical supply.
- Half-life.
- Transportation schedules.
- Storage conditions.
- Receiving and preparation areas.
- Waste management.
- Radiation safety.
- Specialist personnel.
- Measurement and monitoring equipment.
- Data processing capabilities.
- Logistics systems.
- Patient throughput.
A system may have an appropriate technical configuration but still fail to achieve expected capacity if there is no stable radiopharmaceutical supply chain. Feasibility assessment should therefore cover the entire workflow rather than only the image acquisition device.
Distinguishing Technologies That Use and Do Not Use Ionizing Radiation
This classification is important for infrastructure design and safety management.
Technologies Using Ionizing Radiation
These may include:
- X-ray.
- CT.
- Mammography.
- Angiography.
- Fluoroscopy.
- C-arm.
- Certain dental imaging devices.
- Nuclear medicine.
- PET and SPECT.
For X-ray systems, the IAEA emphasizes the need for appropriate radiation shielding plans and facility design.
Radiation protection in medical imaging is not simply about reducing exposure to the lowest possible level at all costs. The objective is to optimize exposure so that the image quality is sufficient to address the clinical question while controlling risks to patients, staff, and the public.
Technologies That Do Not Use Ionizing Radiation
Common modalities include:
- Ultrasound.
- MRI.
The absence of X-rays does not mean there are no risks. MRI involves strong magnetic fields and radiofrequency energy, while ultrasound should be operated according to its intended clinical use, device instructions, and appropriate procedures.
Selection of an imaging modality is a professional responsibility of physicians and healthcare facilities. This article does not provide imaging indications for individual patients.
Nine Criteria for Selecting Diagnostic Imaging Equipment
1. Clinical Needs and Scope of Procedures
Before comparing equipment, hospitals should determine:
- Which procedures are currently performed?
- Which procedures are planned for future development?
- What are the main patient groups?
- What is the expected case volume?
- What level of emergency demand is expected?
- What specialties will use the system?
- Is consultation or remote interpretation required?
- Is backup equipment needed?
The list of technical procedures in medical examination and treatment is currently regulated by Circular No. 23/2024/TT-BYT, together with amendments and supplements issued subsequently. Facilities should review their professional scope and the regulations in effect when planning investments.
2. Capacity and Peak-Hour Performance
Capacity should not be calculated only from average case volume.
Hospitals should assess:
- Peak-hour case volume.
- Number of emergency cases.
- Preparation time.
- Scan or imaging time.
- Processing time.
- Cleaning time.
- Patient transfer time.
- Post-processing time.
- Continuous operating capability.
- Cooling or equipment rest time where applicable.
An appropriate system should support the actual workflow rather than merely achieve a maximum specification under test conditions.
3. Image Quality and Processing Tools
Image quality should be evaluated according to clinical purpose.
Relevant factors may include:
- Spatial resolution.
- Contrast resolution.
- Image noise.
- Artifacts.
- Acquisition speed.
- Reconstruction capability.
- Measurement tools.
- Ability to compare previous studies.
- Post-processing tools.
- Display standardization.
During demonstrations, hospitals should use the same scenarios and evaluation criteria across suppliers. Images created under different conditions should not be directly compared to conclude that one product is superior.
4. Patient and Staff Safety
Depending on the technology, requirements may include:
- Radiation dose management.
- Room shielding.
- Protective equipment.
- Magnetic field zone control.
- Emergency stop functions.
- Patient monitoring.
- Communication with patients inside the room.
- Alarms.
- Table load limits.
- Emergency access.
- Electrical safety.
- Contrast media procedures where applicable.
Safety should be considered from the room design stage rather than added only during final acceptance.
5. Infrastructure Requirements
Each supplier should provide installation requirement documentation, but the hospital should independently assess its ability to meet those requirements.
Important factors include:
- Area.
- Ceiling height.
- Door dimensions.
- Transportation routes.
- Floor load capacity.
- Power supply.
- Electrical capacity.
- Grounding.
- UPS.
- Backup generator.
- Air conditioning.
- Cooling water.
- Ventilation.
- Data network.
- Control room.
- Technical room.
- Shielding.
- Waiting and changing areas.
Renovation costs should be included in the total project budget.
6. Integration Capability and the DICOM Standard
DICOM is an international standard for transmitting, storing, retrieving, printing, processing, and displaying medical imaging information. It supports data exchange between imaging devices, workstations, PACS, storage systems, and related components.
However, a statement that a device “supports DICOM” does not guarantee that every integration function is included.
Hospitals should request the DICOM Conformance Statement and clarify:
- Which service is used to send images?
- Does the system support worklists?
- Does it support storage commitment?
- Does it support query and retrieval?
- Can it send dose reports?
- Does it support structured data?
- Is the functionality included in the standard configuration or optional?
- Are additional license fees required?
- Who is responsible for integration?
- What are the integration acceptance criteria?
DICOM supports interoperability but does not automatically guarantee complete integration between two systems in every configuration. Practical integration testing should still be included in the implementation plan.
7. Staffing and Operational Workflow
Modern medical equipment can generate more data and provide more processing tools, but its value depends on the facility's ability to use them effectively.
Facilities should assess:
- Number of physicians.
- Number of technologists.
- Interpretation and post-processing capabilities.
- System administration capabilities.
- Biomedical engineering support.
- Information technology staff.
- Medical physics personnel where required.
- Emergency staffing capability.
- New training requirements.
- Time required for staff to become familiar with the system.
Suppliers should present training plans for different groups:
- Operators.
- Interpreting physicians.
- Post-processing technologists.
- Technical personnel.
- System administrators.
- Safety personnel.
8. Maintenance, Spare Parts, and Downtime
Diagnostic imaging systems may contain multiple high-value components. Downtime not only creates repair costs but also affects examination schedules and clinical operations.
Key points to clarify include:
- Warranty period.
- Warranty scope.
- Number of maintenance visits.
- Response time.
- On-site arrival time.
- Spare parts inventory.
- Backup spare parts.
- Replacement equipment.
- Remote support.
- Software updates.
- Post-warranty support.
- Product support period.
- Maintenance contract costs.
- Components excluded from warranty.
Hospitals should not simply require a “long-term maintenance commitment.” The commitment should specify timeframes, scope, and responsibilities.
9. Total Cost of Ownership
A medical imaging project may involve many costs beyond the equipment purchase price:
- Room renovation.
- Shielding.
- Air conditioning.
- Electricity.
- UPS.
- Workstations.
- PACS.
- Storage.
- Software licenses.
- Training.
- Verification.
- Calibration.
- Maintenance.
- Spare parts.
- Detectors or probes.
- Consumables.
- Contrast media.
- Radiopharmaceuticals.
- Software upgrades.
- Removal of old equipment.
Hospitals should compare total costs over the expected period of use rather than only the initial purchase price.
How Can Specifications Be Developed Without Becoming Dependent on a Single Model?
Technical requirements should begin with the outcome that needs to be achieved.
Instead of copying a specification directly from a catalog, hospitals can describe:
- Scope of procedures to be performed.
- Minimum capacity.
- Image acquisition and processing capability.
- Safety conditions.
- Connectivity requirements.
- Required accessories.
- Maintenance conditions.
- Acceptance results.
Detailed specifications are still necessary, but each parameter should have a clear connection to actual needs.
A specification can be divided into:
1. Mandatory requirements: Without these, the equipment cannot meet the intended need.
2. Preferred requirements: Features that add value but are not essential to basic operation.
3. Expansion options: Features or modules that can be added later.
4. Included services: Installation, integration, training, maintenance, and documentation.
5. Acceptance conditions: How compliance will be confirmed.
This approach helps facilities avoid turning all the features of a specific device into mandatory requirements.
Documentation to Request from Suppliers
Depending on the equipment type and procurement method, documentation may include:
- Product identification documents.
- Market authorization documentation.
- Catalog.
- Datasheet.
- Instructions for use.
- Site preparation guide.
- Configuration list.
- Accessory list.
- Software information.
- DICOM Conformance Statement.
- Integration plan.
- Installation plan.
- Training plan.
- Maintenance plan.
- Warranty service provider information.
- Spare parts list.
- Product support commitment.
- Post-warranty service price list.
- Safety documentation.
- Verification or calibration records where applicable.
Medical device management requirements in Vietnam are currently consolidated in Consolidated Document No. 08/VBHN-BYT dated March 6, 2026. Circular No. 24/2026/TT-BYT, effective July 1, 2026, adds provisions on determining risk levels and management measures for products and goods classified as medical devices. Facilities should review the regulations in force at the time of procurement and before putting equipment into use.
