Contrast Media Injector Bracco EmpowerCTA+ Dual Head

Contrast Media Injector Bracco EmpowerCTA+ Dual Head

Description

Optimize vascular management of contrast medium and saline solution in your CT studies with the EmpowerCTA+ dual-head injector from Bracco. Available in 100% factory-new configuration or strictly refurbished, this high-durability system ensures continuous workflow backed by the wide availability of its standardized consumables on the national market.

Clinical and Operational Advantages:

  • Contrast Maximization (Saline Jump): The saline solution jump function allows immediate advancement of it to create a compact and efficient bolus, reducing the overall administered dose and iodine-based renal stress.
  • Superior Image Quality: The controlled administration of saline solution, including automatic post-contrast washout, reduces beam hardening artifacts and prevents contrast buildup in the veins of the arm.
  • Patient Safety (Bedside Control): Optimize test injections to confirm venous patency using the bolus injection rate. Your control directly beside the patient bed minimizes extravasation risks, further supported by optional Extravasation Detection Accessory (EDA).
  • Guaranteed and Cost-Effective Consumables Use the FASTLOAD™ CTA DUAL SYRINGE PACK syringe set. Its updated Y-connector connection tube improves the separation between contrast and saline, significantly reducing the amount of contrast needed to purge the line.
  • Advanced Workflow: Compatible with optional direct interface for the CT scanner and optional Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) calculator. It also supports maintaining the intravenous line to aid post-medication hydration of the patient.
