Allengers became the first Indian company to manufacture a CT scanner within the country. The CT scanner was launched at IRIA 2020 by Dr Hemant Patel, Past President, IRIA. The 32 slice ‘Made in India’ CT scanner is manufactured in collaboration with Canon Medical Systems.
Dr Hemant Patel, “We always wondered that despite having a large quantum of radiology equipment in the country why can’t we have a machine that is manufactured here. Companies such as Allengers took up this challenge and today they have launched the first CT scanner that made in India. It is a proud moment for us and has a lot of expectations for this CT scanner machine. This CT is going to cost us less and hopes that this will help us reduce the cost of CT scans significantly.”
Just as Dr Patel pointed out, Allengers’s CT will provide a cost difference of at least 10-15 per cent and promises to provide better ROI in the long run. Speaking about the newly launched CT scanner, R S Kanwar, executive Director, Allengers said that the new CT is a high quality, cost-effective technology. The company intends to further increase the cost difference to about 30-35 per cent.
