Direct award justification
Single supplier - intellectual property or exclusive rights
Cascination is the only supplier who in addition to targeting and being guided where to insert the needle the equipment fuses together the imaging technologies so the radiologist has visuals of multiple modality images to identify lesions in one go (some lesions are only visible on MRI for example) and allows post treatment margin assessment - this allows the user to confirm the destruction of the lesion post procedure.
