Case Studies

The Rad-X Filter trusted nationwide

Glendale Memorial Hospital

Glendale Memorial Hospital

Housni Hariri, Director of Radiology

With 15 years leading Glendale Memorial’s imaging department, Hariri was directly involved in all Rad-X Filter installations across the facility.

Challenge: Protecting high-value imaging equipment from power-related failures that impacted reliability and system uptime.

Solution: Installed 8 Rad-X Filters across CT, MRI, Diagnostic Radiography, and Nuclear Medicine systems.

Results: Filters remain in active use with no failures, contributing to long-term stability and significantly reduced disruptions.

“Even our earliest Rad-X Filters are still in use. I would highly recommend them.”

Providence Holy Cross Medical Center

Edward Lord, Director of Support Services

Having previously installed 8 Rad-X Filters at Glendale Memorial, Lord brought the same solution to Providence Holy Cross to protect new imaging investments.

Challenge: Equipment degradation and frequent part replacements due to poor power quality, impacting system performance and budgets.

Solution: Installed Rad-X Filters to improve power stability for high-end X-ray systems including Siemens Luminos Agile Max.

Results: Proven cost avoidance from prior installations. X-ray tubes lasted years longer. Confidence in expanding future purchases.

“This device works. The x-ray tubes lasted years longer compared to systems without the filters.”

Community Cancer Center – Missoula

Community Cancer Center – Missoula, MT

Jarred Harrington, Associate Field Service Engineer

Jarred was troubleshooting repeated issues with a LINAC system and identified incoming power as the root cause.

Challenge: Chronic failures in a critical Elekta LINAC system due to unstable power, resulting in repeated service calls and operational disruption.

Solution: Installed a Rad-X Filter to stabilize incoming power and eliminate failures.

Results: Zero call-backs since installation. Major reduction in service costs including travel, parts, and labor.

“We’ve had zero call-backs. The cost difference before and after Rad-X activation is substantial.”

McLaren Health Care Corporation

David M. Dickey, CHC, CCE, FACHE – VP, Corporate Clinical Engineering

David oversees clinical engineering across multiple facilities with a focus on reducing equipment costs and maximizing uptime.

Challenge: Imaging systems are among the most costly to maintain post-warranty. McLaren needed to reduce service costs and downtime without sacrificing reliability.

Solution: Installed Rad-X Filters in high-end radiology, neurology, and oncology suites across multiple sites.

Results: Zero Rad-X failures. Post-warranty service costs dropped to 4.6%–5.7%, far below typical 10% vendor contract costs.

“I would highly recommend this filtration product… especially in environments with frequent power disturbances.”

    On February 28, 2017, APQS activated a Rad-X Filter that was purchased and installed by the hospital in an attempt to remediate this specific problem.
    Immediately following the activation of the Rad-X Filter we have had zero call backs in regards to this problem.
    When I estimate Elekta’s “cost of service”, before and after Rad-X Filter activation, the difference is substantial.
    I would recommend this impressive product to any organization trying to lower the incidence of failure, thereby lowering cost of service and improving system availability.

    Even the earliest installed Rad-X Filters are still in use, and at least during my time at Glendale the total benefit to GMH as a result of having the Filters was hundreds of thousands of dollars.
    The electronic components lasted longer with no issues and the x-ray tubes lasted years longer compared to those equipment that did not have the filters.
    I would highly recommend the use of this impressive product to any hospital interested in maintaining a high level of system availability and lowering “need and cost of service” for their high-end medical systems.

    Housni Hariri – Director of Radiology
    It is interesting to note that even the earliest installed Rad-X Filters are still in use, and have significantly reduced power-related issues to our machines and helped improve uptimes. Glendale Memorial Hospital has not experienced a Rad-X Filter failure and likewise, the Rad-X Filter has not contributed or caused downtime in the Imaging suites. I would highly recommend that Directors of Radiology / Facilities / Biomedical Services consider utilizing the Rad-X Filter in their major equipment areas.

    McLaren Health Care hospitals have never experienced a Rad-X Filter failure and likewise, the Rad-X Filter has never contributed or caused downtime in its Imaging and Therapy suites.
    I would highly recommend this filtration product to any hospital and service organization trying to improve system reliability and uptime,
    especially for situations whereby the equipment is installed within electrical environments that experience frequent power disturbances.
