About this file
This special notice from the Department of Veterans Affairs announces intent to sole source with Psychology Software Tools for MRI calibration phantoms. The Salt Lake City VA Healthcare System requires phantoms to attach to MRI scanners to collect and calibrate brain imaging diagnostics. The research office currently uses phantoms from Psychology Software Tools and must continue this supplier to maintain integrity of research results, as other phantoms introduce variables that could skew data given proprietary magnet formats. Interested parties may submit capability statements by June 16th at 12PM EST to Lynn Portman, though sole sourcing is intended based on research needs.
