Device typeCT contrast medium injection system, line-powered, stationary: An assembly of devices designed to inject contrast media through a small catheter and into the vascular system for computed tomography (CT) procedures (e.g., spine, head, gastrointestinal, or vascular diagnostic procedures using CT scanning). It consists of mains electricity (AC-powered) electromechanical injectors (electric motor connected to a jackscrew that moves a syringe piston) with syringes capable of delivering media with the pressure, flow range, and volume required for CT studies, and is stationary (e.g., fixed to a room rack). The system may synchronize media delivery with the x-ray generator during CT scanning.
