SMART Protocols

CONTRAST ENHANCEMENT ISN’T ONE-SIZE-FITS-ALL

Patient weight plays a key role in how contrast media enhances images

Each scan used a standard 100 mL dose of contrast media. Images provided through the courtesy of the Medical University of South Carolina. Used with permission.

 

The same contrast media volume gives varying enhancement results depending on patient weight

  • For heavier patients, attenuation values may be below diagnostic levels

  • For lighter patients, attenuation may exceed required levels

 


 

STREAMLINE YOUR CT WORKFLOW WITH SMART PROTOCOLS

SMART Protocols enhances workflow efficiency through several key features:

By reducing manual work and minimizing the risk of error, SMART Protocols helps lighten the cognitive load, so technologists can focus on what matters most:
the patients.

Icon-01

Automated personalization
of injection parameters based on patient size, contrast media concentration, and tube voltage.

Icon-02

Seamless Integration with RIS/PACS Platforms

Icon-03

Integrated eGFR guidance and IV policies
to meet institutional compliance requirements.

Icon-04

kV adjustment rulesets
for optimized injection protocols.

Icon-05

Iodine load and delivery rate algorithms
optimize contrast dose based on total and lean body weight.

Icon-06

Flexibility to use any available contrast concentration without
waste

Icon-07

Simplified protocol management
across CT indications.

** Do not configure contrast media with different active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) into the same contrast group as serious patient injury or death may result.
Small residual amounts of contrast media within the Day Set could lead to dose-independent reactions. Refer to the contrast media manufacturer’s package insert for specific indications and use time.

Contrast Enhanced Mammography

Contrast Enhanced Mammography

MEDRAD® CENTARGO – YOUR EFFICIENT PARTNER IN CE MAMMOGRAPHY

Contrast Enhanced Mammography is a fast-growing technique for breast cancer detection and diagnosis. It uses iodinated contrast media and dual energy digital mammography to produce a recombined image of the breast that shows areas of contrast enhancement.

The MEDRAD® Centargo helps technologists new to the practice of injecting contrast to navigate through a new workflow with ease. Through its user intuitiveness and automation of manual processes, MEDRAD® Centargo can help technologists streamline their workflow in busy breast assessment practices.
