At RSNA 2009 Bracco Diagnostics will highlight pre-programmed protocols integrated into its CT contrast injectors.
At RSNA 2009 Bracco Diagnostics will highlight pre-programmed protocols integrated into its CT contrast injectors. These will be complemented by automatic features designed to increase efficiency and improve throughput, according to the company. The protocols are designed to work with data management software that can link all CT injectors in a department using a facility’s existing network. Leveraging these enhancements across such a network is expected to improve workflow efficiencies, optimize images, and increase patient safety.
