Tender Overview
Lady Hardinge Medical College New Delhi invites bids for an advanced Echo Cardiography Scanning Machine (V2), including extensive probe sets and 3D/4D capabilities. The submission requires an EMD of ₹180,000 and a comprehensive warranty framework. The apparatus must support cardiac 3D/4D imaging, color Doppler with harmonic imaging, and tissue colorization, with integrated stress echo, post-processing, and DICOM readiness for HIS/PACS interfacing. Expected scope includes multiple transducers (adult, pediatric, neonatal TTE/TEE), dedicated 3D/4D probes, and live 3D imaging with ECG trigger. The procurement is aimed at state-of-the-art cardiology imaging across departments with a focus on compatibility, software packages, and maintenance support. Unique aspects include a broad suite of probes, advanced cardiovascular software, and extensive post-processing features. The award will be conditioned on OEM warranties, service capabilities in India, and compliance with buyer terms.
