Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scanners have become essential tools in modern healthcare. These advanced imaging systems allow medical professionals to view metabolic activity within the body, helping to diagnose and monitor conditions such as cancer, neurological disorders, and heart disease. However, acquiring a PET scanner represents a major financial commitment for any healthcare facility.
At Mehmi Financial Group, based in Brampton, Ontario, we help hospitals, diagnostic clinics, and imaging centers across the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) and all of Canada access flexible financing solutions. If you’re looking to acquire a PET scanner without overextending your capital, our leasing and loan programs are designed to make this technology more accessible.
What Is a PET Scanner?
A PET scanner is a sophisticated diagnostic imaging machine that captures detailed images of how tissues and organs function in real-time. Unlike traditional imaging tools that reveal anatomical structure, PET scanners focus on the body’s metabolic processes.
How Does It Work?
- A radioactive tracer is injected into the patient’s bloodstream.
- As the tracer moves through the body and decays, it emits positrons.
- The scanner detects these emissions and creates high-resolution 3D images.
- Physicians use this data to detect disease activity, evaluate treatment effectiveness, or monitor progression.
PET scans are often used in oncology, cardiology, and neurology, where understanding biological function is just as critical as identifying structural abnormalities.
What Does a PET Scanner Cost?
The cost of a PET scanner varies widely depending on its features, integration with other systems, and vendor reputation.
General Cost Breakdown:
- Base price range: $1 million to $3 million
- Installation & calibration: $250,000+
- Annual service contracts: $100,000 or more
- Upgrades, software, and accessories: Variable
What Factors Influence PET Scanner Pricing?
- Imaging Technology
Newer models offer faster scan times, higher resolution, and lower radiation exposure. - Hybrid Systems
Many PET systems include integrated CT or MRI components, significantly increasing functionality—and cost. - Vendor and Support Network
Larger OEMs offer extended warranties and nationwide support but may come at a premium. - New vs. Refurbished Equipment
Refurbished PET scanners can lower upfront costs by 30–50% while still delivering reliable performance. We offer financing for both options. - Optional Financing Features
Leasing with upgrade flexibility or including service contracts within the loan amount can affect the total investment and structure.
