INJECTORS, INJECTOR SYSTEMS, SYRINGES AND METHODS OF CONNECTING A SYRINGE TO AN INJECTOR

摘要

A syringe includes an elongated body, a mounting member positioned on a rear portion of the body, and a plunger moveably positioned within the body of the syringe. An injector includes a housing and a retainer associated therewith. The retainer is adapted to cooperate with the mounting member to releasably retain the syringe on the injector. The retainer preferably includes a powered loader adapted to move the mounting member and the retainer into engagement to securely connect the syringe to the injector. The injector further includes a powered drive member disposed in the housing. The drive member is adapted to engage and control the movement of the plunger.
