Abstract: Injection device and method for monitoring injection information relating to an injection. A syringe of the device includes a syringe chamber containing an injectant substance. A plunger of the device includes a plunger rod axially displaceable within the syringe chamber. At least one element of the is configured to undergo a corresponding element motion linked to a distal displacement of the plunger rod. A sensor of an electronics unit of the device obtains detection readings relating to the corresponding element motion. An injection is performed by depressing the plunger rod in a distal direction, compelling a corresponding element motion detected by the sensor, and compelling the injectant substance to be injected through a distal end of the syringe chamber. The detection readings relating to the corresponding element motion of the element is processed to determine injection information including at least the volume of injectant substance injected.
