  • Patient infusion system for use with MRI
    Patent number: 5494036
    Abstract: This invention relates generally to the field of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) systems for generating diagnostic images of a patient's internal organs and more particularly, this invention relates to improved MRI systems with decreased interference between the magnetic field used for producing diagnostic images and the magnetic fields generated by the electric motors used for driving the pistons of the contrast media injectors. Additionally, the system employs an improved communication link between an externally located system controller and the injection head control unit located within the electromagnetic isolation barrier which defines the magnetic imaging room.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 26, 1993
    Date of Patent: February 27, 1996
    Assignee: Medrad, Inc.
    Inventors: Arthur E. Uber, III, Seid Waddell, John Stulen, Jon E. Manley
