Hologic Medical Imaging Equipment for Sale
Hologic is the undisputed industry leader in mammography and breast health imaging technology, best known for the Selenia Dimensions and 3Dimensions (Genius) 3D mammography platforms that have set the standard for digital breast tomosynthesis worldwide. Hologic's imaging systems support the full continuum of breast care — from high-volume population screening and diagnostic mammography to tomosynthesis-guided biopsy with the Affirm prone and upright biopsy guidance systems, and specimen radiography with the Faxitron systems.
AR-RAD offers professionally refurbished Hologic mammography and breast imaging systems that have been fully serviced, calibrated against ACR phantom standards, and tested for MQSA regulatory compliance by certified biomedical engineers. Each unit ships with a detailed configuration report documenting detector condition, software version, tube output, and compression calibration. Warranty options, installation services, physicist testing coordination, and technologist training are available for every Hologic system we sell.
What is the difference between Selenia Dimensions and 3Dimensions (Genius)?
Both platforms offer industry-leading 3D tomosynthesis with excellent dose efficiency. The Selenia Dimensions is a proven workhorse trusted by tens of thousands of facilities worldwide, while the 3Dimensions (Genius) platform is the newer flagship system with enhanced software features, faster acquisition speed, and improved workflow integration. Both are excellent choices; the selection depends on your facility's volume, budget, and preferences for newer technology versus field-tested reliability.
Can I upgrade an existing Hologic system to tomosynthesis?
Software tomosynthesis upgrades are typically available for qualifying systems, though hardware requirements and licensing vary. Older analog systems cannot be upgraded. We recommend contacting our team with your specific system model for an assessment—our engineers can evaluate upgrade feasibility and cost-effectiveness compared to purchasing a refurbished tomosynthesis unit.
What does MQSA compliance mean, and why does it matter?
MQSA (Mammography Quality Standards Act) compliance ensures that mammography equipment meets federal standards for image quality, dose management, and safety. All mammography systems sold in the United States must maintain MQSA certification. AR-RAD conducts physicist testing and calibration for every unit we sell to guarantee MQSA compliance and regulatory readiness for your facility.
How long does installation and training typically take?
Installation typically requires 1-3 days depending on site preparation status and room modifications needed. Technologist and radiologist training is usually 2-5 days. We coordinate the entire process with your staff and can often overlap installation with training to minimize downtime. Our factory-trained technicians handle all setup and calibration work.
What warranty and service options does AR-RAD offer?
We offer flexible warranty packages ranging from 90 days to 5 years, plus optional service contracts that cover parts, labor, and preventive maintenance. Since we're an authorized service provider with nationwide coverage, your facility benefits from local support through our Lake Forest, California headquarters with the ability to serve any location across the US, Canada, and Mexico.
Are refurbished Hologic systems as reliable as new ones?
Yes. Our refurbishment process is rigorous: every detector is tested against ACR phantom standards, all mechanical systems are recalibrated, and new high-wear components are replaced. Many of our refurbished systems perform identically to new equipment at 40-60% of the cost, making them an excellent value for facilities with stable budgets.
