A61M 5/00

US Classification:

600432, 600431

Abstract:

Contrast administration data that relates to operation of a contrast media injector system () may be converted from at least one format (e.g., a CAN-compliant format) to at least one other format (e.g., an HL-7-compliant format) for use by a medical system (). Data on contrast media prescribed for an imaging operation using an imaging system (), data on contrast media dispensed from a contrast media storage/dispensing unit () for use in this imaging operation, and data on contrast media actually administered/injected by a contrast media injector system () for this imaging operation may be stored in a data structure (). Patient renal function data may be used to control the dispensing of contrast media from the contrast media/storage/dispensing unit (), to control the operation of the contrast media injector system (), or both, and may be stored in the data structure () as well.

Abstract:

Contrast administration data that relates to operation of a contrast media injector system () may be converted from at least one format (e.g., a CAN-compliant format) to at least one other format (e.g., an HL-7-compliant format) by an injection data management module () for use by a medical system (). Data on contrast media prescribed for an imaging operation using an imaging system (), contrast media data for use in this imaging operation, and data on contrast media actually administered/injected by a contrast media injector system () for this imaging operation may be stored in a data structure () on the injection data management module (). Patient renal function data may be used to control the dispensing of contrast media from a contrast media/storage/dispensing unit (), to control the operation of the contrast media injector system (), or both, and may be stored in the data structure () as well.
