Abstract:
In order to select a computed tomography(CT)scanner system with reasonable cost performance (performance-price ratio) among various brands and types of CT products in accordance with the clinical features of the pediatric patients, Tianjin Children's Hospital made a feasibility study on purchasing the equipment in all its aspects, including the evaluation of its type and performance, social and economic benefits, and eventually purchased a 16-slice helical CT scanner which fully fulfills the practical needs of the hospital. This way of evaluation can be widely used in the feasibility study for purchasing different large-scale medical equipment to avoid unnecessary waste of funds.
