The invention is generally directed, but not limited to, a method system and apparatus that allows an operator to control an injection device and imaging equipement from a common control console. The injection device may be used to administer a contrast medium into a patient so that imaging equipment can acquire internal images of the patient. The invention may include an injection system that can be bundled with software and/or hardware that can be used to modify an existing imaging control console so that it can be used to operate both the injection device and imaging device. In one embodiment, the common control console can access stored protocols that can contain operational parameters for the injection device, the imaging device, or both. Consequently, the efficiency of the test and final quality of the images can be improved. Additionally, the combined control console will aid in the overall process of caring out the imaging tests. |
