Description

Please be aware that the award of this project will be conditional, based on whether the bid for funding is successful.

(This project is funded by the Medical Research Council and the procurement is dependent on the final funding agreement.)

The University of Birmingham invites tenders for supply of an ultrasound imaging system to image small preclinical disease models with high frame rates to accurately image small mobile structures with fast frequency cyclic changes. The equipment will be used for echocardiography and imaging of tissue structures and blood flow.

The workstation should perform image acquisition, data storage and in-line as well as off-line data analysis to derive functional parameters. It should allow for a future upgrade of the setup, both in terms of hardware (especially transducers) and software.

Overall budget for this item is up to £301,612 excluding VAT.
