The UMCG intends to replace a DEXA scanner (bone densitometer) via negotiation without publication, following a market consultation between DUOMED and Fujifilm. A crucial requirement is the data migration of 10+ years of patient data to ensure continuity of care. This is a highly specialized medical equipment procurement that is primarily of interest to specialized medtech suppliers with data migration expertise.

01What is being requested

The UMCG intends to replace a DEXA scanner (bone densitometer) via negotiation without publication, following a market consultation between DUOMED and Fujifilm. A crucial requirement is the data migration of 10+ years of patient data to ensure continuity of care. This is a highly specialized medical equipment procurement that is primarily of interest to specialized medtech suppliers with data migration expertise.

Within the NGMB department, we currently use a DEXA scanner of the brand Hologic, which is now more than 10 years old. This scanner is increasingly experiencing malfunctions and no longer functions reliably, which jeopardizes the continuity of care. The scanner has significantly exceeded its normal lifespan. Furthermore, Hologic currently has no successor model available on the market that can meet our replacement needs.nAccompanying this, a market consultation was conducted to investigate which suppliers can offer a technically and clinically suitable alternative to achieve an appropriate rep

05Frequently asked questions

What is the most important technical requirement for the replacement of the current DEXA scanner?

The most important requirement is the possibility of a validated data migration from the existing database containing more than 10 years of patient data. The historical scans must be able to be transferred to the new system in a valid and certified manner to ensure continuity of care and comparability in follow-up measurements.

Which criteria are essential for the assessment of the proposed systems?

The assessment focuses on the transferability of the existing patient database, the technical performance of the scanner, the quality of service and support, and the quality of the training and implementation plan.

What requirements are placed on the supplier's service and support?

A supplier is sought that can provide medical equipment certification and possesses service support in the Netherlands, preferably with a service team present in the region.

Why is data transferability a decisive criterion?

The current database contains more than 10 years of scans that are essential for the long-term follow-up of chronic patients who return annually. Without a procedure whereby scans are correctly transferred, re-analyzed, and calibrated, the continuity of care is not guaranteed.
