PURPOSE The purpose of this requirement is to acquire a Specialized Sodium Iodide Detector for Thyroid Counting 2. B ACKGROUND The FDA Winchester Engineering and Analytical Center (WEAC) thyroid counting system currently utilizes Sodium Iodide detectors that are more than 20 years old. One detector is exhibiting signs of failure. Maintaining a functional thyroid detector system is required under the Office of Compliance and Safety (OCS) U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) License No. 20-08361-01. The thyroid counting system serves as a safety resource available to multiple FDA offices. 3.S ALIENT CHARACTERISTICS The equipment offered shall meet or exceed all requirements listed below.
