The contract concerns the purchase, installation, commissioning and clinical commissioning of a high-performance photon-counting CT system for the Medical Imaging department, including all necessary hardware, software, licences, reconstruction capacity, accessories, interfaces, training and documentation to use the device as a clinically functional unit. The device is intended for routine and complex diagnostic CT imaging, with particular emphasis on high spatial and temporal resolution, intrinsic and clinically useful spectral information, high-performance cardiac imaging, coronary CT angiography, assessment of coronary calcifications and coronary stents, and sufficient clinical workflow/throughput. Essential functionalities required for the intended clinical use must not be offered as optional or separately purchasable extras outside the basic offer. All necessary software, licences, reconstructions, applications and accessories for cardiac, spectral and UHR applications must be included in the basic delivery, as well as user training and technical training. Works: In this project, the device-specific works will also be carried out by the supplier.
