About Radiation Equipment Consultancy
Independent radiation equipment expertise for hospitals and cancer centres worldwide
About Radiation Equipment Consultancy
Radiation Equipment Consultancy is an independent advisory practice specialising in radiation-producing medical equipment. We support hospitals, cancer centres, diagnostic imaging departments, and nuclear medicine facilities at every stage of the equipment lifecycle — from strategic planning and vendor selection through installation, commissioning, staff training, and long-term quality assurance.
Founded by experienced medical physicists and biomedical engineers, we formed our practice to fill a gap we saw repeatedly in the field: facilities needed impartial, deeply technical guidance that was not tied to any equipment manufacturer or reseller. Today we work with clients across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia-Pacific, bringing the same rigorous standards and collaborative approach to every engagement.
Our mission is straightforward — we help healthcare organisations deploy and maintain radiation equipment safely, compliantly, and clinically effectively, so clinical teams can focus on what matters most: patient care.

Our Qualifications
Our consultancy team holds advanced qualifications in medical physics, biomedical engineering, and radiation protection. Senior consultants are registered with recognised professional bodies and maintain active continuing professional development in line with evolving standards.
Collectively, we bring experience spanning:
- External beam radiotherapy — photon and electron linacs, stereotactic systems, and proton therapy
- Diagnostic imaging — CT, digital radiography, mammography, and fluoroscopy
- Nuclear medicine — gamma cameras, SPECT, and PET-CT systems
- Radiation safety programme design and regulatory liaison
- Clinical dosimetry, QA protocol development, and acceptance testing
We have led commissioning programmes for greenfield cancer centres, supported major hospital refurbishments, and advised on equipment selection for facilities investing in their first radiation therapy or molecular imaging capabilities.
Certifications & Professional Standards
We align our work with internationally recognised standards and guidelines, including IAEA safety standards, AAPM Task Group reports, IEC equipment standards, and manufacturer-specific acceptance protocols. Our consultants hold or have held certifications relevant to their areas of practice.
- Registration with national medical physics and engineering professional bodies
- Radiation protection supervisor and RPA-equivalent qualifications
- Manufacturer-authorised training on major linac, CT, and nuclear medicine platforms
- ISO 9001-aligned quality management practices for documentation and traceability
- Regular participation in professional conferences and standards committee review
We maintain comprehensive professional indemnity insurance and operate under clear conflict-of-interest policies. We do not accept commissions from equipment vendors, ensuring our recommendations remain fully independent.
Our Safety Philosophy
At Radiation Equipment Consultancy, safety is not a checkbox at the end of a project — it is the foundation of everything we do. Radiation equipment has the potential to deliver life-saving treatment and diagnosis, but only when installed, commissioned, and operated within strict safety and quality parameters.
Our safety philosophy rests on three principles:
Prevention through design. We review shielding calculations, room layouts, interlocks, and workflow design early in every project so that safety is engineered in, not patched on later.
Evidence-based verification. We apply rigorous acceptance testing, dosimetry checks, and documentation at commissioning to confirm equipment performs as specified before clinical use begins.
Culture of continuous improvement. We train staff not just to operate equipment, but to understand the safety rationale behind procedures, empowering teams to identify and escalate concerns proactively.
We believe that regulatory compliance and clinical excellence are two sides of the same coin. When safety is done right, facilities pass inspections naturally and clinicians gain confidence in their technology.
Our Team
We are built around a core team of senior consultants, each bringing 15–25 years of field experience across multiple equipment platforms and healthcare settings. We supplement our permanent team with specialist associates for large-scale or multi-site projects, ensuring the right expertise is always on site.
Our team structure includes:
- Senior Medical Physicists — leading radiotherapy commissioning, dosimetry, and QA programme design
- Biomedical Engineers — overseeing installation coordination, acceptance testing, and preventive maintenance planning
- Radiation Safety Specialists — managing regulatory documentation, shielding review, and compliance audits
- Clinical Training Coordinators — developing and delivering tailored staff training programmes
- Project Managers — coordinating multi-disciplinary equipment projects from planning through handover
We pride ourselves on being approachable, responsive, and genuinely invested in our clients' success. When you work with MedRad, you get direct access to senior consultants — not junior staff learning on your project.
