Everything Medical Imaging Equipment Service publishes on biomedical equipment calibration in one place: the full service overview, the related services we provide, and the locations we cover.
Looking for biomedical equipment calibration? Start with the full overview for scope and pricing context, then use the service links to reach the detail you need.
Every calibration performed produces two numbers that matter: what the device read when we arrived, and what it read when we left. Skipping the first one makes the record useless in an audit, because it removes any way to establish whether the instrument had drifted out of tolerance during the interval it was in clinical use.
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.
Calibration is the measurement step, not the repair step. A device is compared against a reference standard with documented traceability, the deviation is recorded, and the instrument is adjusted until it reads true across its working range — then the as-found and as-left values are both written down, because the as-found figure is what tells you whether anything treated on that device since the last visit was affected.
Calibration intervals are not arbitrary. They come from the manufacturer's specification, the device's history, and how hard the department runs it. An instrument that drifts twice in a row needs a shorter interval, not the same one repeated, and a technician who does not adjust the schedule is recording a problem rather than solving it.
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.

Scheduling is agreed rather than imposed. Clinical operations set the window, and work that cannot fit inside it gets planned around a shutdown rather than forced into a working day.
Service records are read at the worst possible moment - after an incident, during an accreditation survey, in discovery. That is the audience they should be written for, which means legible, specific and dated rather than signed off in bulk.
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.
