An injector system for delivering a medical fluid may include at least one syringe defining a reservoir operatively connected to a piston; and at least one processor programmed or configured to, based on an air check protocol for detecting air in the reservoir, determine a baseline value comprising baseline compressibility data for the at least one syringe of the injector system, deliver the first amount of the medical fluid from the reservoir; refill the reservoir with a second amount of the medical fluid; based on the air check protocol, perform an air check pressurization sequence by gathering air check compressibility data for the at least one syringe of the injector system; and based on the air check protocol, compare the air check compressibility data with the baseline compressibility data to determine a volume of air present in the reservoir.

System and method for air detection in fluid injector

A syringe manifold for a fluid injector assembly includes a middle body member defining an upper cavity and a lower cavity, the middle body member defining at least one fluid path in an upper surface of the middle body member and at least one fluid path in a lower surface of the middle body member, the middle body member defining at least two ports extending through the middle body member, the middle body member comprising an outlet for connection of the syringe manifold to at least one fluid delivery device; a lower body member received within the lower cavity of the middle body member, the lower body member comprising at least one connector for connection of the lower body member to a syringe assembly; and an upper body member received within the upper cavity of the middle body member.

Fluid injector and patient set therefor

A fluid injector system includes a control device operably associated with at least one drive component for use in actuating a plurality of fluid containers in fluid communication with a patient through an administration line. The control device includes at least one processor programmed or configured to enable programming of a diagnostic injection protocol comprising one or more phases according to which at least one of the first and the second fluid containers are selectively actuatable by the at least one drive component to enable injection of at least one of a first fluid and a second fluid into the patient. The control device is further programmed or configured to enable selection and commencement of at least partial preloading into the administration line of at least one of the first fluid and the second fluid in accordance with the one or more phases of the diagnostic injection protocol.

Preloading of contrast injection protocols into the administration line

A syringe manifold () for a fluid injector assembly includes a middle body member () defining an upper cavity () and a lower cavity (), the middle body member defining at least one fluid path in an upper surface of the middle body member and at least one fluid path in a lower surface of the middle body member, the middle body member defining at least two ports extending through the middle body member, the middle body member comprising an outlet () for connection of the syringe manifold to at least one fluid delivery device; a lower body member () received within the lower cavity of the middle body member, the lower body member comprising at least one connector for connection of the lower body member to a syringe assembly (); and an upper body member () received within the upper cavity of the middle body member.

An adapter for releasably attaching a syringe to an injector. The adapter comprises a mounting mechanism positioned at a rear end of the adapter to mount the adapter in a desired position relative to a front wall of the injector; and a syringe carrier section adapted to seat at least a portion of the syringe. The syringe carrier section defines a first opening on a top thereof to allow placement of the syringe therein from the top and a second opening in a rear section thereof to allow the drive member of the injector to communicate forward force to the plunger. A cover portion extends over a rearward end of the first opening and has a first end configured to abut the flange of the syringe when the syringe is positioned within the syringe carrier section.

Injector systems and syringe adapters for use therewith

A syringe for use with a powered injector to inject a fluid into a patient that includes a length of material adapted to transmit or propagate electromagnetic energy therethrough. The length of material includes at least a first indicator positioned along the length of material. The first indicator is adapted to interact with at least a portion of the energy being propagated through the length of material in a manner that is detectable. The presence (or absence) of the first indicator provides or corresponds to information about the syringe configuration. The indicator(s) of the present invention can, for example, provide information about syringe configuration by the number and/or position thereof. A plurality or set of such syringes can be provided, with the configuration of each such syringe being represented by the presence or absence of indicator(s) of that syringe.

Encoding and sensing of syringe information

A syringe for use with a powered injector to inject a fluid into a patient inclides an encoder. The encoder includes at least a first indicator positioned on the encoder. The first indicator is adapted to interact with at least a portion of energy being propagated through or adjacent the encoder in a manner that is detectable. The presence (or absence) of the first indicator provides or corresponds to information about the syringe configuration. The indicator(s) of the present invention can, for example, provide information about syringe configuration by the number and/or position thereof. A plurality or set of such syringes can be provided, with the configuration of each such syringe being represented by the presence or absence of indicator(s) of that syringe.
