Amendment 6, Questions, Responses, and Images
1. If you decide to continue utilizing your existing Mammotome, our understanding is you will still need a guidance system to perform stereotactic biopsies (for Hologic, Affirm Upright). Can you please revisit this topic with your clinical team for clarification? Yes, we will need a breast biopsy guidance system. It is added back into this requirement. The Brevera system is removed.
2. Can you please identify in Terabytes, the amount of data you are requesting to be moved from the existing SecurXchange to the new SecurXchange? It is between 10 and 15 TB.
3. Could you please provide pictures of the room from different perspectives, including sinks, cabinets, and other relevant details (UPS)? See attachments email, Images.
4. From your response to our previous question, you advised that, “Only training to biomedical onsite at PIMC”. Training for biomeds is held at our training facility in Marlborough, MA. This allows participants to complete break and fix; something you don’t want to replicate on your new system. They would also have access to the appropriate training equipment. Is this acceptable? We added clarification to be onsite/remote/online/web training.
5. Is your current system connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)? If so, can it be utilized for the new system? If not, it is important to be aware that the UPS for the gantry must be installed 10ft away. The approximate dimensions of the UPS are 18"X36"X39", with a weight of up to 750-800lbs. If required for your new system, have you identified a suitable location for its installation? Could you please share pictures of intended location (or current location)? No current UPS device. Yes, area has been identified. See attachment image UPS location.jpg. We plan to remove the old film light box and install the UPS there. This mammo reading room is next to the mammo room.
