Liquid injector for controlling injection of liquid in real-time according to injection graph
First Claim
1. A liquid injector for injecting at least a liquid into a subject with injection performing means, comprising:
- image displaying means for displaying a plotting chart image having a vertical axis and a horizontal axis;
graph entering means for accepting an input action to enter an injection graph having chronologically changing injecting conditions into the displayed plotting chart image;
graph storing means for storing data of the entered injection graph;
graph displaying means for displaying an image of the entered injection graph whose data is stored on said displayed plotting chart image; and
injection control means for controlling operation of said injection performing means in real-time according to said entered injection graph.

Abstract
A liquid injector displays a plotting chart image whose vertical axis represents liquid injection rates and horizontal axis represents liquid injection times. When an injection graph which represents a liquid injection rate at each quantity of the liquid to be injected is entered into the displayed plotting chart image, the liquid injector controls operation of an injection performing means according to the injection graph and a time which has elapsed from the start of injection of the liquid. The rate at which the liquid is injected can thus be changed as desired with time according to the injection graph.
