Medrad

  
The new Intego PET Infusion System 
Medrad (Booth 2815) is displaying its Intego PET fusion system, which automates the administration of FDG for PET/CT imaging procedures.

The Intego System automatically extracts a patient dose from a multi-dose vial and administers the dose, via infusion, directly to the patient, minimizing the need for manual dose preparation and associated handling, as well as protecting the technologist from the corresponding radiation exposure.

With the Intego System’s dose-on-demand capability, the prescribed dose may be administered when the patient and technologist are ready, enabling technologists to easily and efficiently respond to schedule changes, patient delays, and add-on patients.
