Section 10-2
Why do Maintenance
10-2-1 Quality Assurance
In order to gain accreditation from organizations such as the American College of Radiology (USA), it
is the customer’s responsibility to have a quality assurance program in place for each scanner.
The program must be directed by a medical physicists, the supervising radiologist/physician or
appropriate designer.
Routine quality control testing must occur regularly. The same tests are performed during each period
so that changes can be monitored over time and effective corrective action can be taken.
Testing results, corrective action and the effects of corrective action must be documented and
maintained on the site.
Your GE service representative can help you with establishing, performing and maintaining records for
a quality assurance program. Please contact us for coverage information and/or price for service.

serviced and outlines items requiring special attention.
NOTE: It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure the LOGIQ P9/P7 care & maintenance is performed as
scheduled in order to retain its high level of safety, dependability and performance.

that you use your LOGIQ P9/P7 for an average patient load (10-12 per day) and not use it as a primary
mobile unit which is transported between diagnostic facilities.
NOTE: If conditions exist which exceed typical usage and patient load, then it is recommended to increase the
maintenance frequencies.
