Guerbet, a specialist in medical imaging solutions, has issued a statement highlighting the importance of using original and certified consumables with its diagnostic imaging equipment. The company warns that the use of generic or uncertified parts can pose significant risks to equipment functionality, potentially leading to malfunctions and voiding warranties.

According to the statement, utilizing certified consumables can contribute to time and cost savings by reducing the need for repeat examinations, minimizing equipment downtime, and preventing canceled or postponed procedures. Furthermore, it helps avoid costly repairs that may not be covered under service agreements, while also ensuring patient safety.

Guerbet clarifies that original consumables are engineered to prevent issues such as cracking, incompatibility between parts, and leakage. They also ensure accurate volume and flow rate during injection, which is crucial for the quality of diagnostic images. The risk of consumable breakage and maximum pressure resistance are key considerations in the design of these original products.

The company offers its OptiVantage, OptiOne, and OptiStar Elite ranges of consumables, specifically designed for CT and MRI imaging. These products are developed in conjunction with the imaging devices to ensure optimal performance and safety.
