Patients are likely to be seen in both facilities (for example, if they need both optometry and ophthalmology services. Standardization is needed for streamlining training, service and support. 3)The new OCT shall be compatible with FORUM, so scans from Bradenton CBOC can be compared to scans from the Bay Pines VAHCS and vice-versa. The Bradenton CBOC currently has a Cirrus model. Therefore, this data must be compatible with Cirrus data. DATA MUST BE USED IN A COMBINED GLAUCOMA REPORT WITH HFA VISUAL FIELD DATA. 4)The new OCT shall offer optic nerve head analysis and provide RNFL (retinal nerve fiber layer) imagery. The OCT must be compatible with FORUM to provide seamless Progression Analysis for ONH/RNFL and Macular change analysis. IN ORDER FOR THIS TO WORK, IT MUST COMPARE DATA FROM THE SAME INSTRUMENT. 5)The OCT shall be compatible with FORUM to use in combined glaucoma reporting with HFA visual field data. The new OCT must have the ability to produce a combined report including OCT and HFA visual field data. 6)The new OCT MUST measure RNFL the same way as all past scans in a patient's chart, in order to compare change. The OCT shall have the capability to provide seamless ONH and macular change progression analysis incorporating OCT scans collected during the previous five years. The new OCT must measure RNFL data in a format compatible with all past scans currently in a patient's chart. This is necessary to compare change or progression. 7)The new OCT shall offer layer maps in the analysis, for "at a glance" detection of subtle pathology 8)The new OCT shall offer Ganglion Cell Analysis 9)The new OCT shall automatically track fixation and the ONH during scanning and automatically realign post-scan. It cannot be manual. 10)The new OCT shall have the ability to combine OCT and visual fields data into a single report. The vendor must be able to provide timely on-site support when needed. 52.212-2 Instructions to Offerors- Commercial Items (JUL 2013) Offerors shall submit quotes electronically by the date and time in accordance with the Request for Quote instructions.
