Mobile Cardiac PET/CT
Cardiac Imaging Without Capital Investment
At Shared Medical Services (SMS), we provide high-quality Mobile Cardiac PET/CT solutions, giving healthcare partners a seamless, cost-effective way to integrate advanced cardiac imaging into their practice.
Cardiac PET/CT is transforming how we detect and manage coronary artery disease (CAD) and other serious heart conditions. With superior accuracy, faster scan times, and lower radiation exposure compared to traditional imaging like SPECT, it’s quickly becoming the preferred choice. However, for many providers, the high upfront investment and infrastructure demands have made adoption challenging—until now.
With SMS, you get on-demand access to a fully equipped, expertly staffed mobile PET/CT unit, allowing you to offer state-of-the-art imaging without the long-term costs or logistical hurdles of owning your own system. Our fractional access model provides flexibility, efficiency, and financial advantages—so you can focus on delivering high-quality patient care while we handle the rest.
Beyond clinical benefits, Cardiac PET/CT offers strong financial incentives, with opportunities for reimbursement and increased service revenue—particularly with dual-purpose use for both cardiology and oncology. By maximizing scan volume across specialties, providers can enhance profitability while expanding access to advanced imaging. Reimbursement rates vary based on provider agreements and payer policies.
And it’s not just about cardiac imaging. Our mobile PET/CT units support both cardiology and oncology, giving you the versatility to evaluate myocardial perfusion and blood flow or conduct PET scans for oncology patients—all on the same platform. With our turnkey solution, expanding your imaging services has never been easier, eliminating financial risks and operational burdens.
SMS delivers everything you need—technology, expertise, and operational support—so you can deliver the best possible care to your patients, whenever and wherever it’s needed.
