    Brief

    Aarhus Universitet intends to enter into an agreement with Fieldline Medical for the delivery of an Optically Pumped Magnetometer MEG (OPM-MEG) system to CFIN, Aarhus University, located in Østjylland. This system is required for human neuroimaging research, including recording brain activity in adults, clinical populations, pregnant women, and small children. The specific technical requirements for the OPM-MEG system include a sensor surface temperature of ≤46°C after 30 minutes, a sensor noise floor of <18 fT/√Hz, sensor dimensions of ≤16 × 16 × 40 mm, and full-head coverage extending to C1. The contract is being awarded without prior publication because only the HEDscan 96-sensor from FieldLine meets all these essential requirements.

    From the notice

    • The contract concerns the purchase of an OPM-MEG. The contracting authority intends to award the contract concerning the delivery of an OPM-MEG to CFIN, Aarhus University through negotiated procedure without prior publication, as the supplies can only be provided by a particular economic operator for technical reasons. These technical reasons are specifically related to uniqueness in terms of form, function, or performance – and cannot be obtained on the open market in a comparable form – i.e., only one supplier is able to provide the instrument in question. The Center of Functionally Integrative Neuroscience (CFIN) at Aarhus University requires an Optically Pumped Magnetometer MEG (OPM-MEG) system to support an active program of human neuroimaging research. The research involves recording brain activity non-invasively in healthy adults, clinical populations, and pregnant women (fetal neurophysiology). CFIN plans to also record MEG from small children in the near future. These applications have the following requirements to be technically and ethically viable within an adequate failsafe safety margin: • Sensor surface temperature ≤46°C after 30 minutes of continuous operation mounted on the head or abdomen to avoid burn hazards and to allow the sensors to be arranged more densely and enable longer data collection sessions. • Sensor noise floor <18 fT/√Hz to ensure reliable detection of weak neural magnetic signals targeted by current and proposed research projects. • Sensor dimensions ≤16 × 16 × 40 mm to enable dense sensor coverage of target brain regions and fetal measurements. • Full-head coverage extending to C1 to enable reliable cerebellar and posterior fossa measurements. No other supplier on the market offers this solution in one system. Only the HEDscan 96-sensor from FieldLine meets all mentioned essential requirements.

      1,5T MR skanner til Aarhus Universitetshospital, Kræftafdelingen

      Region Midtjylland har brug for en 1,5T MR-skanner til Kræftafdelingen på Aarhus Universitetshospital i Østjylland, med en kontraktvarighed på 10 år. Skanneren skal kunne anvendes til terapi-MR-skanning af forskellige diagnoser (Cerebrum, Hoved-hals, bækken, ekstremiteter, knoglemetastaser), MR-skanning af patienter til Brachyterapi samt MR-skanning af børn i anæstesi (primært cerebrum). Det er afgørende, at skanneren understøtter et effektivt patientforløb, da patienterne ofte kræver særlig lejring og brug af forskelligt fiksationsudstyr, samtidig med at den skal levere høj billedkvalitet på tværs af kliniske anvendelser. Siemens Healthcare A/S har en lignende kontrakt i dag. Tildelingskriterierne er kvalitet og funktionalitet (70%) og økonomi (30%).

      The procurement of the Supply, Installation and Commissioning of a Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscope (FIB-SEM) with Gallium Ion Source

      Danmarks Tekniske Universitet (DTU) needs the supply, delivery, installation, commissioning, and acceptance of one focused ion beam scanning electron microscope (FIB-SEM) dual-beam platform. This instrument will serve a multi-user research environment in the Copenhagen area for high-resolution surface imaging, site-specific cross-sectioning, TEM lamella preparation (including automated workflows), 3D FIB-SEM tomography, gas-assisted deposition and etching, nanoscale manipulation, and elemental microanalysis by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and ToF-SIMS. The award criteria are Price (30%) and Quality of the solution (70%). Suppliers must provide at least 3 references for comparable agreements, each with a value of at least DKK 10,000,000, concerning the supply, delivery, installation, commissioning, and acceptance of a FIB-SEM dual-beam platform or a comparable service, with the agreement not being more than 5 years old.
