## Summary

The University of Edinburgh is initiating a public procurement process for the acquisition and installation of a Combined CT Scanner and Gantry System, aimed at enhancing multi-area imaging capabilities at the Equine Diagnostic, Surgical, and Critical Care Unit (EDSCCU) at Easter Bush Campus, Edinburgh.
