Upgrading diagnostic imaging equipment is an exciting step forward for any practice, but what happens to the systems you no longer need?

Many hospitals underestimate the value of their old equipment or assume the process of selling is complicated and time-consuming. The truth is, selling your redundant equipment is a straightforward process when you enlist the people with the right expertise to help. At Probo Medical, we offer the best financial solution for used diagnostic imaging equipment. We can purchase old imaging equipment and offer our deinstallation service for: CT, Ultrasound, Mammography, Fluoroscopy, X-Ray and C-arm systems.

Here are five reasons why selling your old diagnostic imaging equipment and partnering with Probo Medical can benefit the finances and operations of your practice:

1. Your Old Equipment is Worth More Than You Think

The depreciating value of used equipment is a concern for many hospitals, yet old diagnostic imaging systems often hold more worth than expected. At Probo Medical, we have a thorough understanding of resale markets. We know there is a strong demand for pre-owned systems, opportunities for parts harvesting, and access to global buyers, so we can significantly increase what your equipment is worth. Using a data-driven valuation process, we ensure you receive a fair and competitive offer. Our team can quickly assess your system and provide a no-obligation quote that gives you reassurance before you make any decisions.

2. You Don’t Have to Handle Removal or Logistics

Coordinating the removal of diagnostic imaging equipment can feel overwhelming. Probo Medical handle everything for you, including equipment pickup, professional deinstallation, secure crating, and transportation using a specialised healthcare courier. If you need to store your MRI before it arrives at your location, we provide chillers and compressors that support multiple cold storage MRI units. Our team monitors your magnet closely, checking helium levels, compressor operation, and shield temperatures to ensure optimal conditions.

Ahead of the deinstallation, we appoint a project manager to oversee and organise each aspect with your point of contact - from logistics, right the way through to setting up a schedule for the day - to minimise downtime and ensure there is no disruption to patient care or your staff. Probo Medical’s certified engineers will carry out your removal for you, and with an average of 99.98% equipment uptime and 90.7% first-time fix rate across all imaging equipment, you know you’re in safe hands.

3. Selling Helps You Stay Compliant and Secure

Protecting patient data during equipment removal isn’t just important, it’s also essential for compliance and peace of mind. Probo Medical ensures every system undergoes genuine, certified data wiping, so sensitive information is completely removed. We also handle environmentally responsible disposal of any non-usable components, reducing your practices liability and helping you meet regulatory standards without stress. Probo Medical ensure security from deinstallation to disposal, managing every step with strict protocols giving you peace of mind and protecting your reputation.
