Dual syringe injector system
First Claim
1. An injector comprising:
- a housing;
a first drive member at least partially disposed within the housing and operable to engage a plunger of a first syringe;
a first syringe retaining mechanism associated with the housing, the syringe retaining mechanism adapted to releasably engage the first syringe;
a second drive member at least partially disposed within the housing and operable to engage a plunger of a second syringe;
a second syringe retaining mechanism associated with the housing, the syringe retaining mechanism adapted to releasably engage the second syringe;
a pressure sensing device operably connected to at least one of the first drive member or the second drive member, the pressure sensing device being adapted to measure fluid pressure within at least one of the first syringe and the second syringe when the respective syringe is engaged by the respective drive member; and
a control system operably attached to the first drive member, the second drive member, and the pressure sensing device, the control system being configured to individually control the first drive member and second drive member simultaneously, wherein the control system is capable of causing sequential injection or simultaneous injection.

Abstract
Dual syringe injector systems are disclosed. An injector system may include a housing, a first and a second drive member within the housing and operable to engage a plunger of a first and a second syringe, respectively, a first and a second syringe retaining mechanism associated with the housing and adapted to engage the first and second syringe, respectively, a pressure sensing device connected the first and/or the second drive member and adapted to measure fluid pressure within a syringe when the syringe is engaged by a drive member, and a control system operably attached to the first and second drive members and the pressure sensor sensing device. The control system may be configured to individually control the first and second drive members simultaneously. The control system may be capable of causing sequential or simultaneous injection.
