Clear Direction. Mobility, Simplicity and Reliability.
What is MEDRAD® Salient?
MEDRAD® Salient is a contrast media injection system designed for use during CT examinations, including contrast enhanced mammography. It is available* with single head and dual head configurations. MEDRAD® Salient Dual can flush with saline while the single head system injects contrast media only.
How does MEDRAD® Salient work?
An icon-driven, user-friendly interface allows the creation of customized protocols –up to 6 phases. The cordless configuration of MEDRAD® Salient means greater mobility without the need for electrical or data cables. Compared to a single head injector system, use of a saline flush with a dual head injector provides improved peak contrast enhancement and controlled timing of contrast bolus1.
