Below is every page Colorado Biomedical Services maintains for medical imaging equipment repair — the complete overview, the related services, and the surrounding locations our technicians cover.
Turnaround matters more than list price on a repair. Equipment sitting on a bench is capacity a department does not have, so the useful question is not only what a repair costs but how long the device is out and whether a loaner bridges the gap.
Every visit produces documentation an inspector can read without a translator: what was done, to what standard, by whom, and when it is next due.
Repair starts with diagnosis, and diagnosis starts with the failure history. A device that has failed the same way three times has a root cause that replacing the same board a fourth time will not reach. The work is to find what is actually driving the fault, then fix that.
The parts decision is the honest part of a repair. Some faults justify an OEM part, some are served perfectly well by a qualified equivalent, and some devices are past the point where either makes economic sense. A technician should tell you which of the three you are looking at before the invoice, not after.
Work is performed to manufacturer specification and the applicable regulatory standard, and the record says which one was applied.
Technicians are qualified for the equipment they touch, and the qualification is on file rather than asserted.
Findings are reported plainly, including the ones that mean a device should be taken out of service.

Scope is written down before the work begins, including what is excluded. Most disputes about equipment service are really disputes about scope that nobody put in writing.
The documentation is not administrative overhead; it is the deliverable that outlives the visit. When an inspector, an insurer or a lawyer asks what condition a device was in on a particular date, the record is the entire answer, and a facility either has it or does not.
If you are not sure which of these pages applies to your equipment, describe the situation and a technician will tell you what the work actually requires rather than what the largest quote would cover.
