Title of the project: Leksell Stereostatic System

1. History/Background/Purpose:

The Corporal Michael J. Crescenz VA Medical Center in Philadelphia is requesting Leksell Stereotactic System to supply and outfit the Neuro Surgery program within Surgical Services. Currently, equipment of this nature and technology does not exist within the facility.

Leksell Vantage Stereotactic System is a well known coordinate system and a center-of-arc principle. This apparatus is used to help shorten preparation time and lessens the risk of losing parts during cleaning and sterilization.

The system comes in four parts:

· Lesell Vantage Head Frame

· MR Accessories

· CT Accessories

· Leksell Vantage Arc System

2. Detailed Description:

Elekta Inc. 400 Perimter Center Terrace, Atlanta, Ga 30346

· (1) Leksell Vantage Head Frame (This new design of the head frame gives an open space in front of the face area. Therefore, it gives space for intubation of the patient if necessary in an emergency situation. The Frame MR safe. The frame is designed for head sizes between 49 and 62cm in circumference. The head width can be 134-175mm in range and length 167-215mm in range.

· (1) MR Accessories (MR Accessories and PEEK polymer fixation pins with a small aluminum tip provide fiducial-based MR imaging with few restrictions. Chosen materials ensure that there is no head frame induced radio frequency heating during imaging. The MR accessories set includes a fiducial box and four coil adapters with different shape).

· (1) CT Accessories - (Expanding stereotactic neuroimaging capabilities. Leksell Vantage CT-accessories enable stereotactic coordinate referencing in imaging with intraoperative CT as well as radiology department based CT-scanners. Our CT-accessories are compatible with the existing Leksell CT table fixations for interfacing with various models of CT-scanner tables. The Leksell Vantage operating table interface is used when acquiring stereotactic CT intraoperatively. By utilization of the Frame Holder interface for CT scanning, the same patient positioning is applied during stereotactic CT scanning as during surgery).

· (1) Leksell Vantage Arc System – (The Leksell Vantage Arc System is made of aluminum and has an elegant click-on mechanism for confidence and control during surgery. The X-scale is easily visible on the back and front of the arc, allowing for a smooth setting and use of the X-coordinate during surgical procedures. Vernier scales enables target coordinate setting with sub-millimeter accuracy. The Leksell Vantage Arc design places all X-, Y- and Z-scales sterile outside of draping enabling smooth coordinate changes during procedures. During surgery, Leksell Vantage Stereotactic System is fixed to the operating table by the Frame Holder, which is made of glass fiber laminate with glass fiber-reinforced polyamide details).

3. Delivery Requirement:
