NAICS - 811210
This is a Notice of Intent, not a request for proposal. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) intends to negotiate on an other than full and open competition basis with Mediso USA LLC to procure an annual full service maintenance contract for two (2) Multi-Scan LFER PET/CT IN-VIVO Animal Imager instruments located in Bethesda, MD.
Required by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), Division of Intramural Research (DIR), Laboratory of Clinical Infectious Diseases (LCID), Tuberculosis Research Section (TRS). In our clinical studies, we are using 18F-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) and high-resolution computed tomography (HR-CT) imaging to monitor response to chemotherapy in TB patients. The results have re-emphasized that TB in humans is a complex disease, usually presenting with a spectrum of lesions, both structurally and functionally, even within a single patient. The difficulty in the human studies is that we cannot make a direct physical correlation with the images we see by PET/CT and the changes in microbiologic and histopathologic outcome of the individual lesions and overall disease. By adding HR-CT and FDG-PET monitoring to our animal experiments, we can make correlations with the results we are observing in TB patients and provide context for the interpretation of the human results using tractable animal models. In addition, we will test new potential PET probes designed to target features of the bacteria or the disease in animals to determine their usefulness before pursuing the probes use in humans. This project requires regular access to PET/CT imaging equipment with sufficient resolution and speed to image 0.1 mm anatomic structures in animals as big as macaques and adult NZW rabbits located in a NIA...
