66 -- ACQUISITION OF X-RAY FILM DIGITIZING SYSTEM POC Ginny Powers, BOC-110., 407-867-7869 EG&G Florida, Inc., in support of NASA at the Kennedy Space Center, is seeking sources to provide one (1) each X-ray film digitizing system. The system supplied shall incorporate the following features: 1) must meet or exceed specifications as outlined in the American Society of Metallurgical Engineers (ASME), Section V, Article 2, Appendices III, Mandatory Appendix VI and ASTM E-1475; 2) the film digitization scanner must incorporate a minimum dynamic range of 0.005-4.10 optical density on a single scan; 3) allow for easy interface and compatibility to remote users, e.g., NASA Government facilities such as Marshall Space Flight Center; 4) multiple field bar code capability to be incorporated with each radiograph for identification and archival purposes; 5) user selectable scanning formats. User must be able to define, select and scan a discreet area(s) on a radiograph as well as be able to scan an entire 14" x 17" piece of X-ray film; 6) the system must be able to perform a single 50 micron resolution scan and display at 12 bits minimum digital fidelity on a 5 megapixel monitor; 7) an image record data base that conforms to ASTM E-1475; 8) the system must incorporate a means of indicating system performance, i.e., the system shall perform calibration routines that indicate spatial resolution, contrast sensitivity, density, etc., and indicate what steps are necessary to recalibrate the system; 9) the system shall incorporate a means of calibrating the high resolution (5 megapixel) monitor to ensure consistent montior output and display conditions; 10) the system shall incorporate the ability to scan two separate images and save them together as a single continuous file; 11) the system shall incorporate a means of allowing users to preset a series of viewing and enhancement commands prior to scanning a radiograph, and allow users to save the exact setting, filters, etc., that were applied to an image immediately prior to interpretation. Suppliers capable of providing a system that meets these specifications are invited to send a data package including sufficient technical data to establish a bonafide capability of meeting the requirement, price sheets, GSA schedule (if applicable) to EG&G Florida, Inc, attn: Ginny Powers, BOC-110, Kennedy Space Center, FL 32899. A request for proposal will not be issued until after any submitted data packages have been reviewed for technical acceptance. Data packages should be received within 15 days from date of publication. (0021)
