Radiation therapy maintenance. A successful in-house program
1Loyola University Medical Center, Maywood, IL.
Abstract:
With the development of complex equipment technologies in the medical care industry and particularly in radiation therapy, the costs required to keep equipment in proper operating condition are substantial. An "in-house" radiation therapy maintenance program can provide significant savings in equipment maintenance costs as compared to the cost of maintenance contracts. Additionally, the skills of the personnel providing this maintenance program can be used for ancillary areas of the therapy department.
