Abstract: A high crack pressure valve is described. The high crack pressure valve includes an inlet adapted to receive a medical fluid pressurized by a pump; an outlet in fluid communication with a fluid path element, wherein the fluid path element is in fluid communication with downstream system components of a fluid delivery system; and a moveable element having a crack pressure threshold. The moveable element has a first closed position and a second open position and is configured to move from the first closed position to the second open position when a fluid pressure at the inlet is greater than or equal to the crack pressure threshold. The pressure of fluid at the outlet of the high crack pressure valve has little or no effect on movement of the moveable element from the first closed position to the second open position. Fluid injector systems and fluid path elements which include the high crack pressure valve are also described.

Abstract: A method of training a prediction tool to generate at least one synthetic full-contrast image from zero-contrast and low-contrast images of a subject may involve receiving a training set a set of images of a set of subjects, the images of each subject comprising a full-contrast image, a low-contrast image, a first zero-contrast image acquired prior to the acquisition of the full-contrast image, and a second zero-contrast image acquired prior to the acquisition of the low-contrast image. An artificial neural network may be trained with the training set by applying the first and second zero-contrast images from the set of images and the low-contrast images from the set of images as input to the artificial neural network and using a cost function to compare the output of the artificial neural network with the full-contrast images from the set of images to train parameters of the artificial neural network using backpropagation.
