title: Management considerations in medical equipment acquisition.
abstract: Financing acquisition of sophisticated instrumentation and accessory equipment may best be accomplished by leasing, which conserves working capital and borrowing capacity. A flexible leasing agreement allows for changing conditions, such as purchasing necessary instrumentation not previously anticipated. However, before agreeing to lease, the potential lessee should investigate the lessor's reputation and financial strength.
